Madame Lefrere is a French teacher at Larry Mack Middle School. She is mentioned in Rodrick Rules and in No Brainer.
History[]
Rodrick Rules[]
At the beginning of the school year, Madame Lefrere hands out forms to the class so they can choose pen pals to write with. Greg checks off the boxes that will get him a pen pal like Rodrick. But Madame forces Greg to rechoose a pen pal that was his gender and age.[1] [2]
She assigns Mamadou Montpierre as Greg's pen pal then makes everyone write their first pen pal letters.[3] After getting a letter back Mamadou, Greg argues that it was dumb that Madame Lefrere wouldn't let anyone email their pen pals, citing the amount of money Albert Murphy and Jacques, his pen pal, spent to buy stamps for three letters.[4]
No Brainer[]
Due to teachers requiring their own distinctive hall passes, Madame Lefrere's new hall pass is a hefty French dictionary.[5]
Online[]
When Greg and Rowley join Safety Patrol, Madame complains to Mr. Winsky about their tardies from class, arguing that it doesn't take two patrollers to walk the kindergartners home. Winksy acknowledges her argument and has Greg and Rowley walk the kindergartners independently. Madame makes Greg fill out Rowley's pen pal form as a result since he is covering the first shift.[6]
Trivia[]
