Below, text reads: "If I could go back and tell my middle school self 1 thing, I would tell them... 'Getting comfortable in your own skin as soon as possible will make your experience so much happier in middle school. It is so difficult not to be worried about what others think about you, especially in middle school. The sooner you become cool with being yourself and not worrying about others, the sooner school and life becomes much more enjoyable." The Lawton Middle School Blue Devils logo is in the corner.
