DISTANCE: Whenever possible, students and staff will maintain consistent groupings of individuals to minimize the spread of COVID-19. 

HANDWASHING: All students, staff, and visitors will be reminded to use proper handwashing techniques or apply hand sanitizer as often as appropriate. Hand sanitizer will be available in classrooms and common areas.

Get Your School Uniform
Academy uniforms are available at Flynn Ohara. Order your student's uniform online at https://flynnohara.com/shop/the-lawson-academy-tx048/

The Dress Code should be strictly adhered to. Faculty and staff conduct uniform checks daily. PARENTS: we understand that uniforms are being ordered and will deliver in two-three weeks. The Lawson Academy will use relaxed uniform guidelines until mid-September, 2022, giving sufficient time for purchases made just before school started to be delivered to you.

Get student ties, gym shirts and spirit shirts at: 5220 Scott Street (WALIPP Senior Residence) or online https://thelawsonacademy.org/shop-lawson/
School-Day Tutoring
All students will be assessed and when appropriate, tutoring will be scheduled during the school day. Students are more likely to be on-grade-level if learning gaps are identified and addressed. By assessing student knowledge, teachers are better able to prepare students for the next grade, high school and beyond. For that reason, tutoring will be available in Math and English/Language Arts.

Want to know why we invest so much time and resource in our tutoring program? Last year's STAAR results proved that tutoring really works!
