Lawrence 3-8 School at a Glance
Our students follow a traditional elementary schedule, and traditional middle school schedule with six periods. This allows both levels to have electives that include music, art, PE and tech. Our goal is to have each student reach their highest level of academic potential in the classroom, through both direct support using interventions and focused individual work using various platforms.
