Lawton Elementary School is inviting anyone who has been associated with the school over the past 100 years to attend a community celebration on Friday (3/27). 

The Centennial Tea runs from 4p.m. to 6p.m. at the school and will include historical displays and the chance for students, parents and teachers to reminisce.  The event will also feature musical performances, historical costumes and the chance to purchase old time photos of the school.
