We’ve enjoyed celebrating some beloved Lawton traditions this month. The students are showing their school spirit in their sports-themed outfits today, we’re hearing them share their move-a-thon accomplishments, and our hallways are filled with teachers and staff basking in the appreciation showered on us this week. Our celebrations and community building looks a little different these days, but it still feels great to celebrate these (modified) traditions together.

Heartfelt gratitude from our teachers and staff for all the appreciation and kindness you expressed this week. Thank you to our PTA for providing treats every day and to every person who shared a kind word with a staff member. You brightened our week and we are so grateful for you.

Move-A-Thon May 3rd – 9th

This PTA fundraiser has raised more than $21K with just a few days remaining. As a fun incentive, Dr. Deno will take a whipped cream pie to the face for all to see (virtually of course) when our school reaches $25K. All students are encouraged to participate, even if they don’t fundraise. Email a picture of your completed BINGO BOARD by FRIDAY, MAY 14 to receive your Finisher Certificate! Class with the highest percentage participation gets popsicles (and their teacher gets a Garibaldi’s Gift Certificate)! Please Community Meeting Flyer.pdf .
