The Lawrence School District always had a reputation for being the trend setter in education. As we roll-out our new website with new capabilities for on-line community and school based discussion groups, I look forward to sharing our comprehensive district educational plan. Using on-line discussion groups as well as a series of traditional town hall meetings beginning in September, the school community will have numerous opportunities to provide input and have questions addressed by district administration.

The Lawrence Schools, the heart of a cultural mosaic, will serve as a catalyst and provide the means for uniting our Public Schools, Private Schools, Houses of Worship, Government Agencies, and Civic Organizations, so that we harness the talents and resources of our great community to serve our mutual goal-providing the best education for every child. As part of this commitment we welcome you to begin a dialogue by participating in the discussion forums below.
