Lawrenceville Elementary School strives daily to develop “caring, responsible, contributing citizens”. It is Lawrenceville Elementary School’s belief that if these values are developed and reinforced at school, it will make ethical decision making an instinctive response in their students’ lives outside of the confines of the school walls. The stakeholders at Lawrenceville Elementary School agreed that their Mission Statement, and one of their goals, should be dedicated to character education and the development of students who know, care about, and act upon core ethical values. They have found that placing the emphasis on the six pillars, Respect, Responsibility, Caring, Citizenship, Trustworthiness, and Fairness has simplified the process so that even their youngest learners can understand character concepts.

“As a Mom, I believe it is my job to teach my children right from wrong, compassion towards others, respect and responsibility. At LES (Lawrenceville Elementary School), our children not only have these qualities reinforced but they are given opportunities to act upon them; they become a natural part of their personalities...”– Sheila Kron; President, PTO Lawrenceville Elementary School
