I wouldn't say I'm proud to have studied here but the best part of this school are some of the teachers. I feel as I the school should offer more of the classes they'd use to, have the bathrooms open more, help students involve themselves more in the SAT's, ACT's, colleges, and scholarships. I'd also like to see more sports available.

Rating 4 out of 5

Lawrence High school is overall a pretty decent school and my years at the school have been pretty good. Most of the teachers are really nice and help us as much as they can. The sports are good and fun. Obviously not every school is perfect they all have there down sides like no ac, expensive prom tickets and not the best food however it’s not that bad.

Rating 3 out of 5

It’s an average high school with a great amount of diversity between the student population. Not much diversity in the administration and faculty population. A great amount of the student population feel like voices aren’t being heard.
