During a previous interview with MageeNews.com Lawrence explained the basic of his successful plan. “Getting the teachers and students to believe in themselves was the hardest thing I had to do,” stated Lawrence. He based his teaching on the 3 R’s: Respect, Responsibility, and Readiness. Constantly putting the 3 R’s in front of the students and teachers led to success.
Lawrence stated he wanted stability. He has high expectations for each student. He stated “We love kids, we are not a team, we are a family. I respect the students and faculty, and they respect me.”
