Lawrence is one community of kindness and strength.
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
Nothing is going to get better. It's not.

Dear Lawrence ,
The June calendar has been posted on the web and app. Please check for important dates and information on SNAP benefits. It has been a challenging year, but we are so very proud of the efforts of our students, supported by their families. Stay well !
Dr Pedersen
In these challenging times we would like to make families aware of an increase to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). If families already get SNAP benefits, additional funding will be sent to the benefit card.
Any family NOT already receiving SNAP, but qualifying for the school Free and Reduced lunch program will be mailed a card that will be able to be used in the same way. There will be payments for March and April, and another for May and June.
The funding stream is not from DSS, rather from the Office of Temporary Disability Services. Families will not have to apply separately for this benefit.
If you have preregistered for tonight’s Parent Training, a link was sent to you to join us on Google Meet at 5 pm. Looking forward to seeing you! Self- care is always a good choice! Please email familysupport@lawrence.org if you have any trouble with the link.

She unselfishly visits families to help them manage during these difficult times. We thank all Sasha and her team who spread kindness!
