I adore this school. Lawton has tons of kind and compassionate students, and teachers that are passionate and fun. We have great activities and all in all, I have barely any complaints. The bathrooms are clean, the school lunch is free and mildy good, and the entire campus is fun with tons of varieties of activities to do during lunch and recess. The worst thing about Lawton that I can think of is that there are only one to two recesses nowadays. Before, there used to be three.

I have two daughters currently going to Lawton. They both love it. They feel safe and have been progressing so much. I found that the teachers are to approach. The principle is very supportive. We were lucky to get into the school since it was a lottery system. Very happy with the school.
