Well, does your lesson.models file definitely define a class called
Lesson?

This is why it's a bad idea to do from x import *. You should always
import the things you need explicitly, then you can tell what's going
wrong. Try doing
from schoolutil.lesson.models import Lesson
and see if it still goes wrong - or if you get a more informative
error message.
