Education Lawsonville's public school system is overseen by the Stokes County Schools Board of Education. In 2023, the Board of Education voted to close the Lawsonville elementary school at the end of the 2023-24 school year. Current students were reassigned to one of the two other local elementary schools, based on home addresses.
The Lawsonville elementary school building became the new home to Meadowbrook Academy, a public educational facility that serves middle and high schoolers who struggle in traditional public school settings. In 2024, the Board of Education voted to rename Meadowbrook Academy to Stokes County Academy.
