Lawrence Public Schools (LPS) is a school district headquartered in Lawrence, Massachusetts.




History



The Massachusetts Department of Education took control of the school district in 2011 due to low performance of schools; the district was at the 1% at the low end in comparison to other school districts in the state. The state established the school board Lawrence Alliance for Education and appointed its members. In 2014, WBUR reported there were higher test scores.
In 2021 groups of parents advocated for allowing for an elected school board to again govern the district.
In 2024, the school district selected Ralph Carrero as the next superintendent.
