Company

The Schools

Lenox Public Schools serves 315 students enrolled in the Pre-K to grade 5 Morris Elementary School and 440 students in the grade 6-12 comprehensive middle and high school. The small size of Lenox schools has been a distinct advantage in providing a personalized academic experience for all students. Both schools are defined as high-performing according to statewide student assessment standards.  Ninety per cent of high school graduates in 2017 went on to higher education at two- and four-year colleges, and the dropout rate at Lenox High School is typically less than one percent.

The Morris Elementary School was awarded National Blue Ribbon School status in 2016; the Lenox Memorial Middle and High School was named a Gold Medal School by US News and World Report in both 2016 and 2017. Lenox is justifiably proud of all the accomplishments of its students and faculty and looks to continue at this high level of excellence.
