Reminder: George Peabody Memorial

Reminder: Day Student Bus

Due to a conflict with the Alcott House, Lawrence Academy will no longer be able to use their parking lot for pick-up on the AM Concord route. Effective Monday, April 25^th all students that board at the Alcott House will now be picked up at the Concord Public Library (129 Main Street).

Academic Office

Students will make course requests for the 2022-23 school year this week, with their advisors. Then, we anticipate publishing the “Course Request” document in the student and parent portals during the week of May 9. The Course Request document will show your student’s course preferences for next year; please note that this not a final list of what they will be taking.

We expect to share the “Course Enrollments” document in the parent and student portals in mid/late July; this will list the courses in which your child will be enrolled in the 2022-2023 academic year. The actual class schedule (teacher, room, block) will be provided at registration, just before school begins.

PLAY Baseball, BAKE for CS Concessions, HELP at a car wash, PAINT a ceiling tile – all the ways you can give back, meet others, and have fun (and, of course, meet the 6-hour CS requirement).

Green Bag Collection: Pick up green bags to donate and earn CS hours! The last Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry food drop-off is the last week of the school year. The final day for drop-off is June 9, in the student lounge. Let’s make this collection the largest yet! Green Bags to fill are available from Mrs. Clark.

Remember: 2 bags = 1 hour
Two hours max for food donations as CS hours

LA’s community service requirement is six hours per year, every year of attendance (Note: we do not accept summer hours to satisfy our small 6-hour requirement) Students should ask their advisors to look up what we have on file for their community service.

• LA offers projects on the weekends - click here for the list.
• Students can volunteer for a non-profit in or near their home community and send in their verification - click here for more information.

Community Service Concessions

Concessions sold at LA sporting events support community service projects that students have chosen to do.  Rise Against Hunger often sponsored most of these tables, we’ve made a transition to call the tables “CS Concessions” so the proceeds can be used for more than just the RAH meal packaging event. We do not donate the money – students use the money to buy what they need to DO something for an organization. For example, we buy blanket material to create blankets for the homeless, food to make meals or desserts for community meals, materials to build beds for kids and supplies to package meals. So if you need a snack while at an athletic game and you see a table being run by students stop by to help LA students Take Action for the Greater Good!

Reminder for Seniors

Seniors – On May 9th – the day off from classes – those that still owe service hours and/or have not made a plan, will be participating in a service project. All Spring CS Options are listed on the sign-up page. Sign-up for the LA sponsored weekend CS projects or send Mrs. Poulin your plan for completing your CS hours. Seniors who have not completed their hours will need to complete them instead of participating in their senior class outings during senior week.
