GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall it is a great school to be in. Not much of pressure like other schools in NJ. This school sends about half dozen kids to ivy leagues every year.

I'd say it was a slightly above-average public High School experience. NJ is known for its good schools and this doesn't disappoint. Plenty of different clubs for a variety of interests and the diversity of the student body is good as well. Most teachers are friendly and care about what they are teaching which is vital. Some faculty could use improvement such as guidance counselors

Hopewell Valley, Princeton and WWP are all hybrid models, why is Lawrence still locking away its students? What am I paying taxes for in this district if the people running the show can't get their act together? Much is being lost in this process while the district is focused on other distractions....
