Lawton Families,

We had a really great Family Career Night this week, and I want to thank Ms. Barry for organizing it, and especially thank all of the amazing Lawton families who participated!

Returning to Lawton Survey

Now that it is May, we are starting to plan for next school year already!

We have an electronic Returning to Lawton Next Year? survey that we need all families to complete for each of your Lawton students by May 9.  This replaces the paper survey we have sent home in past years, and this data helps us plan classrooms for next year.

Snacks from the Office

Most students at Lawton have a mid-morning snack break, and we ask that families send a snack with their student each day.  The Main Office keeps a supply of snacks (part of our nursing supplies) on hand as a back-up when students may need one or if they forget to bring a snack from home, and we are noticing larger than usual numbers of students lately coming to the office and asking for a snack.  We really appreciate the donations of these snacks from Lawton families over the course of the year for this need – and we would like to ask families to check in with your children to make sure you are packing a snack your child will eat, and that they know the office snacks are not intended to be given to all students every day.

Sneaker Drive Update

Thank you for donating your used sneakers to the Lawton 4th grade recycle campaign.  We collected 120 pairs of used sneakers in April with a total of 812 pairs this school year.  Our goal is to hit 1,000 pairs by the end of the school year!  We only need 188 more pairs to make it happen!!!  Please continue to bring in sneakers and deposit them in the blue bin at the school entrance.
