Our Philosophy
Education is a lifetime process, which neither begins nor ends with the Lawrence Township Schools. It is a cooperative effort involving home, school, and community. Our mission is to provide students with opportunities to acquire knowledge and skills to become responsible, lifetime learners in a pluralistic society. We believe our schools must provide a nurturing environment that fosters active learning and positive student-teacher interaction, respecting the developing nature of the learner. Central to our mission is the pursuit of excellence. We believe this is achieved through an integrated curriculum that stimulates intellectual inquiry, promotes an understanding of self and others, and encourages physical well being and the development of conscience.
Core Values
We believe in hard work, high expectations and standards for our students, staff and parents.We believe that the most critical element in the learning environment is the interaction between teachers and students, supported by parents, other students and other staff.
We believe that every student has unique gifts and talents and is worthy of the highest quality experiences for intellectual, social, emotional and physical growth.
We believe that our curriculum should be effective, innovative and comprehensive and should lead to knowledge, skills and ethical values that stimulate a lifelong commitment to learning and responsible behavior.
We believe that the effectiveness of our district requires continuous pursuit of excellence through open and ongoing communications and collaboration among all stakeholders.
We believe in our mutual responsibility to be competent, accountable and trustworthy.
