LPS Family: Just a friendly reminder of our COVID testing schedule if you are in need of a test.
Lawton Virtual Academy/Gateway Success Center staff hosted their First Annual Chili Cook-off on Dec. 3!
The chili cook-off competition was held alongside a cornbread bake-off, which lead to two award winning dishes -- one from each competition!
Mr. Belter was the first place winner in the chili cook-off.
Mrs. Mason took first in the cornbread competition!
We can't wait for next year!
Thank you LRC for your hospitality today! Our Gateway Success Center students had a fantastic time touring the many opportunities you offer!
In this issue of the Lawton Public Schools (LPS) ReView, we highlight our very own LPS Police Department and their efforts to promote consistently drug-free environments for our students, celebrate Hispanic Heritage, and congratulate student successes. Additionally, we wanted to put a spotlight on our teachers’ ongoing professional development, our TAP students, and our hardworking virtual staff. There is so much to unpack in this issue, and we hope you will take the time to really dive in to our latest publication of the ReView!

Congratulations and good luck to Lawton High School Wolverines Dan Downey and Zachary Siaca! Both received an invitation to play at the World Teen Championship 2021 in Pinehurst, North Carolina this July. We will have two awesome #LawtonPS golfers representing our district and community. Zachary Siaca also placed 5th with a three-day total of 227 at the Texas and Oklahoma Golf tournament in Wichita Falls. It was a three-day tournament this week with 89 players in the 16-18 division. This qualifies him to play in Dallas, Texas. JOB WELL DONE Zachary! #ppf #WeAreLPS
