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.

Lawton Families, This week (11/13-16) our 5th grade students will be going to Islandwood Camp – which is a very exciting and a wonderful experience for Lawton students – but this does mean that there will be no Safety Patrol at 27th and Elmore while they are gone. 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 students do have school on 11/20-22, and all students have no school 11/23-24 for the Thanksgiving holiday. By now, Lawton teachers have communicated with their families about how to
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. This does not affect submissions for participants who made a financial contribution. While this does not impact the funds we are collecting, it does impact how we track our participation goal across classrooms. The Ask For those of you who selected the Participate Only option on the Dolphin Dreams Direct Drive site, we kindly ask that you complete the survey linked to below. This should just take a moment and will ensure that your participation is counted toward your child's classroom (in support of the potential popsicle party, extra recess, and small prize). Your participation also ensures you will be
