The Blue Angela will fly over NY today as a sign of American Strength. May you be uplifted by the display of unity. May the fly by help strengthen us all.
Working for the children, Principal Chris Moore, joined by secretaries Nereyda Amaya Moran, Sabrina Lynch and Head Custodian Billy Mahr prepare the second grade Chromebooks for Wednesday distribution. Although these young learners had tablets to access programming, with the extended school closure, we want our learners signing in to “live” instruction with their fabulous teachers. We await delivery on the first grade Chromebooks. Previously issued student tablets will serve as “ hot spots” for internet connection.
Dear Lawrence Families, The Governor has announced that school will be closed until at least May 15th. Please stay connected with your teachers and our social emotional support teams during this period of “NY Pause”. Following social distancing guidelines remains our shared responsibility . We are proud of our students for their academic work ethic and for handling the tremendous emotional pressure of this crisis. Reach out for support, be strong and be well Thank you.

Dear Lawrence Families,
Thursday and Friday MS and HS students are asked to follow the posted schedule to pick up locker belongings from the back of our buildings. We thank our facilities department and remind you that social distancing will be enforced at this time. No one will come in the building. Drive or walk up and tell your name and locker number to our staff. Bagged belongings will be passed across a six foot table. Cleaned lockers will allow Lawrence a chance to fully sanitize the buildings.
Thank you
Here for one another.
