Tutoring Has Begun

In every school day, tutoring is happening. Students started with Math tutoring in October. You can see the students working individually or in small groups with a tutor. Keep up the great work, students - every hour of tutoring supports improving STAAR results. Spring tutoring will include English/Language Arts content, and we won't stop tutoring until we have made sure that everyone gets what they need. Thanks to Varsity Tutoring for being our partner in the work.

Rice University Celebrates The Lawson Academy

Thanks to Rice University for recognizing The Lawson Academy at a recent football game. Mr. KP and Coach Kelly took several Lawson scholars to 'represent' all of our wonderful students and families. Check out the pictures of Rev. and Mrs. Lawson on the big screen!

Tell Us About Your Student

November is National Homeless Youth Awareness Month

November has been a time to acknowledge those children and families experiencing homelessness. As many as 2.5 million youth per year experience homelessness. Along with losing their home, community, friends, and routines as well as their sense of stability and safety, many homeless youth are also victims of trauma.

The Lawson Academy provides resources to all students and supports multiple service projects each year. In November, give to our Canned Goods Drive which supports the neighborhood food bank, Manna House.
