🐉💚 CONGRATULATIONS TO TWO OUTSTANDING GREEN DRAGONS! 💚🐉

Lake Placid High School is proud to congratulate Mr. John Panella, our Teacher of the Year, and Mrs. Suzanne Kimrey, our School-Related Employee of the Year! 🎉👏

🎶 Mr. Panella, LPHS Band Director, has revitalized our band program through his passion, leadership, and dedication to his students. Under his direction, our Green Dragons have experienced incredible opportunities, including All-State Band, Drum Major Camp at FSU, and most recently, performing alongside high school bands from across Florida at FIU. His commitment continues to open doors and create unforgettable experiences for our students.

💚 Mrs. Kimrey, our Guidance Secretary, is an essential part of keeping the LPHS Guidance Department running smoothly. She works tirelessly to keep the department organized while answering questions, solving problems, and assisting students, parents, and staff each day. Her dedication and willingness to help others make a difference throughout our school community.

Mr. Panella and Mrs. Kimrey truly represent what it means to be an LPH Dragon through their hard work, dedication, and commitment to our students and school.

Please join us in congratulating these two very deserving Green Dragons! 🐉💚🏆

Remembering September 11, 2001 - Patriot Day

This morning, the LPHS JROTC Dragon Battalion led our school community in a solemn 9/11 Milestone Remembrance Ceremony, beginning at 8:46 AM - the moment the first plane struck the North Tower 25 years ago. Students and staff gathered around the flagpole to pause, reflect, and honor the lives lost, the heroes who responded, and the countless individuals forever impacted by the events of September 11, 2001. The ceremony included the traditional military lowering of the flag to half-staff, a chronological reading of the morning’s events accompanied by the tolling of a ceremonial brass bell, and a keynote address from Fire Chief J. Kelly Duppenthaler.

We are proud of our JROTC Dragon Battalion for providing our students with this meaningful opportunity to remember an important moment in our nation’s history. Thank you to our students and staff who wore red, white, and blue and joined us in observing Patriot Day with respect and remembrance. 🇺🇸

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

💚🐉 Learning Beyond the Classroom! 🐉💚

Students from Mr. Spencer’s Prep for Adult Living class at LPHS are gaining valuable real-world experience through their partnership with NU-Hope!

Every Tuesday and Thursday, students volunteer at NU-Hope, where they get a firsthand look at what it means to have a job and be responsible in the workplace. Students help hang clothing, organize shelves, complete miscellaneous tasks, and practice following workplace expectations.

These experiences help our Dragons build important skills like responsibility, teamwork, organization, independence, and a strong work ethic—all while giving back to the community! 💪

We are proud of our students for showing up, working hard, and preparing for life beyond high school! 🐉💚
