Lakeland Regional High School District

UPAL students had an incredible opportunity to observe an open-heart surgery, gaining firsthand insight into advanced medical procedures, teamwork in the OR, and real-world applications of science and healthcare careers.

Dr. Harding presented to our UPAL students on careers in Physical Therapy. She shared insights on career pathways, education and training, and her professional experiences, providing students with valuable perspective on the field. Thank you for an amazing presentation!

Lakeland School Community,
This is a quick reminder that the district will be CLOSED on Monday, January 19th, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Have a great weekend!

✨ Read This Book - It’s a Sign... to stop by the LRHS Library Media Center and let the stars guide your next read. New year. New reads. New possibilities. This New Year astronomy display was thought up and creatively designed by Lakeland students and library volunteers Chloe Masinegra and Sophie Pliva!

Our Medical Club - D.E.M. - was excited to welcome members of Ringwood Volunteer Ambulance Corps at their January meeting! The volunteer EMTs shared their pathways into Emergency Medical Services, explained what EMTs do on a daily basis, and discussed how volunteering can be a valuable asset for students interested in future medical careers.

Thank you for inspiring our future healthcare professionals!

This week, the library is honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through words and action. Stop by, reflect, and be part of the legacy.

📖 Read. Reflect. Act. - explore books that highlight justice, courage, and change.

❤️ Choose Love Activity - inspired by Dr. King’s words, “I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear,” students are invited to decorate a heart and write a word or action that shows how they choose love in the world.

UPAL academy students were trained by industry profesional from Water Co. The experience is second to none, and their level of sponsorship and commitment to Lakeland is truly remarkable. Thank you Rich!!

Our UPAL students were visited by one of our alumni who shared his experience with the Army ROTC program. Than you Mr. Jakubaszek for your time and dedication to Lakeland!
