Welcome to David Lawrence Jr. K-8 Center’s PTSA web page! This page will evolve as the year progresses and new programs develop so we encourage you to “save” it and visit it often so you can stay informed!
As a PTSA we are always looking for passionately committed individuals to jump in, become involved and make a difference in our school and the lives of the children we are here to serve! We encourage you to become involved, become a PTSA member, volunteer – and help us, as we help our children “Ride the Wave of Excellence” at David Lawrence Jr. K-8 Center!

Please note, PTSA members are automatically placed on this list!
Adopt a Class Campaign
The Adopt a Class campaign raises funds for our classroom teachers. We hope to have each teacher sponsored by a generous Dolphin family or local business. Our goal is to provide each teacher with $250 for miscellaneous projects, student incentives, supplies, etc. Donors will be recognized in a variety of ways, including inclusion on an engraved list of donors prominently displayed in the school’s main office.
