Another Southwest Elementary Bond Project Reaches the Finish Line! We’re excited to announce the completion of the installation of brand new lockers in our 3rd and 4th-grade hallway! These new lockers will free up classroom space, giving students more room for learning and collaboration. They also provide a small but meaningful step in preparing students to transition to middle school. This project was made possible by the incredible support of our community through the passing of the April 2024 Bond. Thank you for investing in the future of our students! #WeAreLawson
