Both Sherry and Mr. Lawrence were wonderful mentors to me when I started teaching thirty years ago. They were both huge blessings to this kid who had no idea what she was doing. Mr. Lawrence was a supportive principal to work for! He will be missed! My thoughts and prayers are with Robin and Jason during this difficult time. May God bring them peace and comfort.

Mr Lawrence was a caring & professional administrator. He hired me to be a counselor at FJHS in August 1992.
One day he fell and the cut required a band-aid. The students did notice, and each student copied him with a band-aid on their face. Jr. High students are observant and creative!
I appreciated the leadership and support from Mr Lawrence to a new counselor.
