St. Lawrence College in Athens has undergone a regrettable decline that cannot be overlooked. Once a respected institution, the school has shifted its priorities towards maximizing enrolment and profits, neglecting essential investments in facilities and educational quality.

Over the past decade, the school's investments have been disproportionately focused on non-essential amenities like a sports track, while critical needs such as a senior school library, adequate classrooms, and an indoor cafeteria have been ignored. Students are left to cope with substandard conditions, including under-equipped science labs, cramped classrooms, and temporary classrooms in converted containers (2024).

The school is substandard and does not live up to its claims. It has terrible facilities (no senior school library, no community hall space, under-equipped science laboratories, cramped classrooms, multiple temporary classroom spaces), it retains teachers who are clearly not doing a good job and receiving multiple parental complaints and it has admitted too many students for the building infrastructure. In short it has turned itself from a vibrant school community into a dry, theory-focussed exam factory. One can only assume the owners are making every effort to increase turnover in order to attract a buy-out, as students are no longer the focus of the school's aims.
