It’s hard to believe that Lawrence Academy is in its 50th year! Through the years , we have had the privilege of graduating over 1000 graduates. Remember that warm spring evening, when you were instructed to “turn your tassel” and leave the building as graduates? Where are you now? What are you doing? We need your help again!
Throughout the years you and your families entrusted your education and the foundation of your careers to this school. All too often after graduation, the school is forgotten and left to wonder how each student has fared in the world beyond its walls. We would love to hear your success stories. We are eager to establish a more active alumni association for our school so we can stay better connected with the graduates.
One of the ultimate goals of our Alumni Association is to recognize and honor an outstanding Lawrence alumnus with a Distinguished Alumni Award. We are in our tenth year of honoring such Alumnus.

2009 Barry S. Cobb – 1985 Graduate
2010 Robert Glenn Taylor – 1990 Graduate
