Lawrence, principal at Maytwon,
wants to talk to parents of pupils
If you're concerned about
® anything going on at May-
town Elementary School -
® pick up your phone, dial
426-3416, and ask for ‘‘Mr.
Lawrence.”’
| James D. Lawrence, who
| took over when former
| principal. Eugene Saylor
| retired, wants to talk to the
§%= parents of his new pupils.
‘“The freer people feel to
talk with the school and the
freer the school feels to talk
with the people—the better
off we're all going to be,”
| says Mr. Lawrence.
If parents discuss school
| problems only with each
other or with their children,
they are not helping the
school to solve its problems.
The way to correct a pro--
blem at the school is to call
the principal, Mr. Law-
rence.
Being a principal is
nothing new to Mr. Law-
rence, who as assistant
principal at Riverview in
Marietta | actively ran the
school. (John Sauter, official
principal at Riverview, is
also Director of Elementary
Education for the entire
Donegal District, a full-time
job in itself.)
Mr. Lawrence also is
encouraging parents to at-
tend parents’ meetings at
the school, to air their
problems with other parents
and teachers. While at
Riverview, Mr. Lawrence
was active in the PTO and
organized a meeting at
which the safety patrol
explained their operations to
parents.
Family, church, school -
all these institutions serve
children’s needs, Mr. Law-
rence points out.
Families can help their
children learn if they co-
operate with the schools. ‘If
we don’t have a working,
cooperative relationship
with parents,”” Mr. Law-
rence says, ‘‘There’s no way
we can meet the needs of
children.”
So, if there’s any pro-
blem your child has at
Maytown Elementary—pick
up your phone, dial
426-3416, and ask for ‘‘Mr.
Lawrence.”
If you prefer, you can
send him a note, care of
Maytown Elementary
School.
