Welcome to the Lawson Academy where young scholars in communities with promise grow in citizenship, academics, and personal development.
The Lawson Academy is an open-enrollment public institution (no tuition) with established academic requirements and requisite parental commitment.
We welcome any students who willingly accept the challenge to become college ready and to demonstrate personal integrity and responsibility.
RELEVANT | RIGOROUS | RESPECT | RECIPROCITY
The vision of The Lawson Academy is to create a student-centered, collaborative learning environment in which our scholars utilize innovative learning approaches and technology to become college-ready and to develop into civic-minded, contributing members of the global community.
Our mission is to provide a comprehensive education in single-gender environment based on four cornerstones:
- RELEVANT CURRICULUM
- RIGOROUS INSTRUCTION
- RESPECT FOR SELF AND OTHERS IN THE LEARNING COMMUNITY
- RECIPROCITY, OR GIVE AND TAKE, OF IDEAS AND TALENTS
No child is just a mathematician. Or just an athlete. Or just a painter. In fact, every child can be ANYTHING he/she decides to be.
The success of each scholar requires that we prepare students to meet any challenges they may face in life and in their academic career through learning about oneself, developing positive social behaviors, social and emotional development, resilience, and the ability to view and appreciate beauty.
“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men”
