Lawrence Township Public Schools Named "High Performing" District by the State Department of Education

Lawrence Township Public Schools (LTPS) is proud to announce that the New Jersey Department of Education has officially certified the district as a "High Performing" school district. This recognition follows a rigorous evaluation through the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum (QSAC) review process, conducted every three years for all New Jersey school districts.

During the QSAC review, LTPS was evaluated in five critical areas: Instruction & Program, Fiscal Management, Governance, Operations, and Personnel. The district achieved a perfect score of 100% in three of these categories, resulting in an impressive overall average score of over 95%. This exceptional performance has earned LTPS the prestigious "High Performing" designation, reflecting the district's commitment to excellence in educational instruction and fiscal, effective and efficient management. 

As part of the rigorous QSAC evaluation process, DOE officials visited the district on several occasions, soliciting data for more than 100 separate "indicators" including, but not limited to, evaluations, policies, practices, processes, and meeting records in each of the five areas. 

"This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our educators, staff, students, and families," said Dr. Robyn Klim, Superintendent of Lawrence Township Public Schools. "We are incredibly proud of this accomplishment, which highlights our ongoing commitment to providing a high-quality education and fostering a supportive and inclusive learning environment for every student."

The certification as a "High Performing" district underscores LTPS's unwavering dedication to academic achievement, financial stewardship, strong governance, and operational excellence. LTPS will continue to build on this success as it strives to maintain and exceed these high standards in the years ahead.
