We’ve all been the "new family" trying to figure out drop-off lines, school traditions, and daily routines! The New Family Buddy program pairs seasoned LFSD parents with incoming families during their first few weeks or months to help them feel welcomed, supported, and right at home from day one.

• The Role: Be a friendly, go-to contact for a new LFSD family as they settle into our school community.

• Format: Entirely up to you and your buddy family—whether that’s a quick phone call, answering questions over text, or meeting up at park playdates.

• Time Commitment: Ongoing light touchpoints during the start of the school year.

Remember when you were evaluating schools and wondering what daily life was really like for students and parents? As a Parent Ambassador, you get to share your authentic experience with families considering LFSD.

• The Role: Offer warmth, answer questions, and share your family's journey with prospective parents who want an insider’s perspective on our community.

• Format: Flexible—connect via phone, email, or coffee, depending on what works best for you and the family.

• Time Commitment: As needed. Admin staff (Nathalie) will reach out to confirm your availability before connecting you with a prospective family.
