The New Jersey Department of Education has certified the Lawrence Township Public Schools as a “High Performing” district following a review conducted through the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum.
The review, which occurs every three years, evaluates school districts across the state in key areas such as instruction, fiscal management, governance, operations and personnel.
According to school officials, the district earned a perfect score of 100% in three of the five evaluated categories, with an overall average score surpassing 95%. The certification as a high-performing district reflects the district’s commitment to educational excellence and effective management, officials said.
During the evaluation process, state officials reportedly visited the district multiple times, reviewing over 100 separate indicators, including policies, practices, and meeting records, in areas such as instruction and fiscal operations.
“This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our educators, staff, students and families,” said Superintendent Dr. Robyn Klim.
“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,” Klim said.
School officials emphasized that the designation underscores the district’s focus on academic achievement, financial responsibility, and operational excellence. They added that Lawrence Township Public Schools will continue working to uphold and exceed these standards in the future.
