Communication from the Golden State Water Company
Just today, December 19th, 2011, the District received a written communication from the Golden State Water Company referencing the fact that their water system had levels of bacteria above the drinking water standards back in November 2011.

While the memo states “You do not need to boil your water or take other corrective actions”, we are required by the Health and Safety Code to notify school employees, students, and parents of this information.

FREE Breakfast and Lunch for Kids

Lawndale Elementary School District is pleased to extend our free summer breakfast and lunch program to all children, ages 1 – 18 in our community.

The program’s purpose is to fill the void left by the absence of the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs in the summer months. The operational funds are meant specifically for children’s meals and cannot be used for any other purpose. For more information visit: www.cde.ca.gov/ls/nu/sn/ssfo.asp.
