Seven Lawrence High School (LHS) students were selected to have their work published in Aspirations, the literary magazine of Mercer County Community College. Each year the college invites local high schools to participate in a competition from which the very best in original art and writing is chosen for publication. The college then hosts a recognition program to acknowledge the contributors when the magazine is published. The following students' pieces were submitted for consideration by English teachers Erica Ingram, Cheryl Eng, and Niyati Green:

 

Battulga Amarbat - Life of a Universe

Shaye Lipskind - Men vs. Women in Othello

Kevin Quis - Day in the Life and Winter Love

Leanna Smith - Pencil Pointe

Ethan Surdykowski - The Computer is a Bicycle for the Mind
