There is so much excitement filling our campuses now that our students are back and settling into a new routine with their teachers and classmates. What a year it has been to get us all back safely, now we are excitedly looking forward to the future!
We ask that you- and your family, friends, and neighbors- make a donation to the LNFI PTO by Thursday, November 18th- Give to the Max Day here in Minnesota. Donations can be made on our page:
L Etoile Du Nord French Immersion Parent Teacher Organization | GiveMN
In the past we’ve suggested a donation of $120, but these are different times. If you can make a donation of any amount, please do; if you can’t, that’s fine too. You can make a one-time donation or set up recurring monthly donations on our website all year round.
If you can’t make a donation, maybe a family member or friend can. Call them, email, share our posts on Facebook. There are folks that we know who are willing to give to good causes during this pandemic. Our kids and our school are a good cause!
The LNFI PTO does many things, including fully funding and supporting the intern program, which brings French-speaking interns to LNFI for one-year internships. The intern program is the PTO’s largest budget item and has a big impact on students – classroom interns reduce the staff-to-student ratio and introduce students to worldviews and another native French speaker. The PTO also provides money for a principal fund, teacher/staff-led grants, and social events.
Please join us in supporting our students and teachers with a donation by this Thursday, November 18th.
