They are the calm in the chaos, the encouragers on the hard days, the schedule-fixers, problem-solvers, cheerleaders, listeners, and champions for our kids. Douglass is better because of them — and our students are, too.
Thank you, Mr. McKelvey and Mrs. Hamilton, for showing up for our K–12 kids every single day. We appreciate you more than words (or gift baskets or lunches or sweet treats 😉) can say! 💛🦁 #NationalSchoolCounselorsWeek #WeAreLPS #LawtonPS #DLC

Help us give a BIG shout-out to Mrs. Carney, our January teacher of the month at Douglass! 🎉
Mrs. Carney is an amazing Elementary LVA teacher for 4th and 5th grades, and she truly does it all. She’s funny, outgoing, always super early (seriously!), and brings positive energy to every class she teaches.
When she’s not helping students shine, you’ll find her enjoying a good book 📚 or working on diamond art 💎. Her students and coworkers adore her—and it’s easy to see why!
👏 Congratulations, Mrs. Carney! Thank you for being such a bright spot at Douglass and for making learning fun every single day. 💙✨ #LawtonPS #WeAreDLC #LVAanywhere
