Thank you for all of your support  of Measure B.  It passed with 70% approval!  The added funds will save jobs in our district and allow us to maintain the great educational standards that Cupertino is known for.

Thank you again for all who worked the phone banks, the precinct walks and especially a thank you to all who voted Yes on Measure B!  We thank you!

This week is Teacher Appreciation Week.  I hope you will encourage your child to show their appreciation to their teachers with a note of gratitude.  We will be ending this week with an all School fully catered Teacher Luncheon.   We welcome monetary contributions since that greatly helps our budget and planning. Please drop off your contributions at the School Office in an envelope addressed to "Kathy Fuji: Staff Appreciation!" Checks need to be made out to " Lawson PTA".  Thank you for making this event a huge success in expressing our appreciation for the job our teachers do every day.

Also on Friday, May 15th, the PTA is sponsoring an assembly for each grade level with the founder of WEB.  The parents are invited to attend.  The schedule for the morning is listed below and I hope you can fit one of the assemblies into your schedule.
