When Superintendent Dr. Anthony Lewis arrived in 2018, hundreds flocked to meet him. They shared district strengths and challenges and their creative ideas for school improvement. Dr. Lewis listened and learned. He worked with the school board, staff, and school families to develop a five-year strategic plan. This school year, the district launched year one of a plan that reflects the community’s vision for the future of its public schools.
Lawrence Public Schools will ensure that students of all races, backgrounds, and abilities achieve at high levels, demonstrate proficiency in reading by third grade and in math by eighth grade, and graduate on time prepared for success in college and careers.
