About our web site
Start your navigation from the horizontal bar and use the drop down and side menus to find the program, school, service or information that you are looking for. Information about each school or program is organized with Overview, News, Curriculum, and Staff pages. If you would like to read or download a program brochure, please go to the Publications page underneath the header About Us. Also under this header, you will find many useful links having to do with education.
With many new services, two new programs and five new member districts, we needed to create many new pages and update all the old ones. As we finish this process, we hope that our new 112 page web site will give you a chance to learn everything you want to know about the Greater Lawrence Educational Collaborative. Special thanks to Paddy Duncan, our web designer.
