St. Lawrence Academy - Photo Credit: Dan PikeOne school is operating in St. Lawrence which accommodates students from K-12.

St. Lawrence has an enrollment of approximately 235 students. The school has a educational staff including: a guidance counselor, specialist teachers in the areas of music, physical education, French and library resources. We also have student assistants and full time maintenance staff.

There are currently 2 full time non-categorical special teachers working with students requiring special needs support.

Our school has an active pre-school program and parent volunteers. The Tutoring for Tuition Program is also highly utilized. We are fortunate to be awarded a significant amount of tutoring hours and to have the student and parent interest to offer such a program.

Extra-curricular activities are very popular at our school. Sports events of various types take place on a regular basis with the most popular sports being soccer, basketball and cross country running. The gym is a constant beehive of activity both for training and competition. The Drama Club, Robotics Club, and the Math Team are also quite busy under the direction of local teaching staff.

St. Lawrence has a very dedicated school council who are pro-active in organizing events to benefit our school community and to promote the well being of the students.
