Lawrence School

Excellent cirriculum and access to higher levels of academics. Majority of teachers are easy to communicate with and have rapid channels to speak within a reasonable timeline. Safety is the upmost importance and unfortunately, from personal experience, multiple kids feel unsafe and have been victims of conflict amongst their peers in alarming circumstances and at such a close distance from the school grounds. Currently policy has been allegedly to that both parties, the suspected attacker(s) and victim along with their parents will receive mass punishment from the school without legal precedence. These actions have been expressed by superintendent and principles alike, that theres is issues of understaff and opinions of other parents suspect that this is in the hope that the informal actions do not get disputed where formal process would have to begin only when legal actions are discussed agaonst the school. I would not recommend this school unless you are in a position to hold the administration accountable and ensure their upholding the standards. Every month theres something new where our kids and their friends are getting injured in some shape or fashion and currently is out of control. There are mentally disabled children amongst the kids that show irrational behavior towards them and do receive punitive action or extra guidance from the staff. Eventually this will lead to further injury for both staff and families.

My son had the worse life experience !! I will never recommend this school for American kids with Arab ethnicity !!! Racism is huge there and they won’t care about those kids !!! We are so DISGUSTED !! Our son suffered from a Severe depression while he was there for just one month and he’s only 10 years old !! They mad evil hate school !! We were so worried about our kid and did our best to make him feel better and happy again as he was always “HAPPY SWEET FUNNY LOVE LEARN” that we did not have time to take a legal action against them, we should have !!

Super staff and amazing students! We were honored to be back again for two Driscoll Productions Musical Ventriloquist Comedy Purim performances at the New England Hebrew Academy.•The young children were dressed in costumes celebrating Purim. Some also volunteered to join us on stage playing our tambourines and maracas.•At our second performance, a seventh grade boy volunteered to be our HUMAN DUMMY, wear our ventriloquist face mask, and help us sing "No Bully Zone" because the Pharoah was a bully to the Israelites. Many of the older students volunteered to demonstrate their new ventriloquial skills after choosing a puppet of their choice from our big drum case. Volunteers were encouraged to say their first name into the microphone and try moving the puppet's mouth three times as they said "One, Two, Three" with their new puppet voice.

this is such a great and friendly community .

The leadership are inexperienced and allow disruptive behavior to take place.This was a wonderful and highly competitive school until the previous principal left two years agoThe enrollment has greatly declined.I can not recommend this school now
