Lawton Families,
I hope everyone had an enjoyable short break last week! It was so wonderful to see families attending conferences with our staff last week, and our goal with conferences is open the door to really impactful two-way communication about all of our students over the course of the year. We have 1 week left in the first trimester of this school year, and then teachers will create progress reports in December that you will be able to view on the Source after Dec. 18.

We’ll do our best to have a staff member at the intersection, but please exercise caution and patience with car drop off, walkers crossing streets, and biking to school this week.
Family Conferences
Please note that the week of 11/20-24 there is no school for Elementary-aged students in Seattle Public Schools. Middle and High school
Direct Drive: “Participate Only” Issue
Dear Lawton Community,
It has recently come to our attention that Participate Only submissions on our Dolphin Dreams Direct Drive site were not recorded due to changes in how schoolauction.net (the 3rd party site we use for Direct Drive) stores data.
