Administrstion prejudice in their own way. Black students are not treated the same as white students The school lacks integrity but says its a christain school but is actually no better than a public school. diversity rate sucks. The do everything to keep bkack kids out saying they have a waiting list. Also staff and adminstrators have been heard talking about weeding out black students or administering a test that would keep them out when truth being told half the white students our children are the ones who cant read or write but are at the top of the class The white students cheat of the black students and vice versa but only the black students get punished . The lack of equality. i feel back as a white parent for the black students that work hard but because the school was build by our ancestor so that whites could be seperated and made believe to be superior that black student are not treated fairly when you say you want to stand for God and do whats considered right. i am ashame

I went to Laurence Manning Academy for 14 years and overall it was a great school. Most of the teachers were amazing and cared about all of their students, but there was one or two teachers that were not the best.

I loved Laurence Manning Academy. The faculty are so nice and supportive. At any major event, someone always talks about how the school is like one big family, and I would have to agree. It has so much to offer and is a wonderful place to go to school.

I am a former graduate of Laurence Manning Academy (having attended there 13 years), and have successfully attended a 4 year university and achieved a 4.0, and currently applying to a masters program.

I agree with many of the views of the previous post. My husband and I considered other schools and we decided to go with Laurence Manning. I have been impressed with administration and Dr. Jordan. I do hope there is continuous growth within the school but not at the expense of class size. Public sch...

I am very pleased with the academic progress of my children. My children entered under the leadership of Dr. Jordan and I am very pleased with what I continue to see. There is continuous growth in class size. Curriculum is on track with state guidelines. Chapel is every Wednesday. Students get the o...
