    I absolutely loved the people, and the culture is growing by the years. I think the education was fair and can be enhanced by choosing to take more rigorous courses. Overall, I think it is all about what you make of it. Try the clubs and programs they offer as well as push yourself in your academic life it will carry further than you think. I think the faculty is really caring and wants you to succeed as well as the guidance department!

    I loved Lawrence High! The teachers were great if you made an effort and genuinely wanted to help. I would recommend more college preparation, in the realm of both the classroom and guidance department. The school spirit is there however an there is a true Lawrence culture I can a-test to!
    Lawrence Township Public schools are a great balance for us - the academics are strong, yet the kids don't feel like crazy pressure the students feel in some of the districts around us. Kids can be kids and get a great education without massive anxiety. Love the diversity of our town and our district!
