Ms. Kerri Lawler

Director of Curriculum and Instruction
​Grants Manager

My name is Kerri Lawler. As the Director of Curriculum and the grants manager since 2011, I have worked to enhance our academic programs to ensure students not only enter learners, but exit leaders.  

I graduated from The College of New Jersey, with degrees in both English and Education in 2002. In 2005, I graduated from The College of New Jersey with my Masters in Educational Leadership, earning the Research Award for my exploration of Transitional Supports. It is with that knowledge that I work to provide students with the support they need to be successful in high school and beyond.

​Formerly a middle school teacher, I attempt to infuse my experience to help guide our Harassment, Intimidation, and Bullying program as the District Coordinator.  I work in tandem with Ms. Chelsea Light to ensure our students feel safe and are treated with respect. We honor students monthly at Board of Education meetings when they take a stand for the rights of others as “Upstanders.”  I lead the Intervention and Referral Services committee developing action plans to assist our at-risk students. Our team was trained in the Masonic Model, and I am proud of the great growth referred students have made because of our team. 
​
I also serve as the district’s grant manager, managing the Title I and Title II grant submissions. I work in concert with our Regional Achievement Center. Together, we are working to improve our district proficiency rates in math and reading. Since my start, proficiency rates have grown by 30% on average. While I am proud of this accomplishment, I am working diligently every day for ALL of our students, so that they are career and college ready. They may enter learners, but they will exit leaders.
