Principal's Message

Update: December 19, 2025

As we end the first semester of the school year, we are filled with PRIDE for all that our Lion Family has accomplished. 

As we enter the second semester of the school year, we ask families to help ensure that students remain on track with attendance, academics, and behavior. Together, we can help all of our Lions finish the school year strong.

I hope everyone has a restful winter break with family and friends. Campus will be closed starting Saturday, December 20 and will reopen Monday, January 5 when teachers return to campus. Students return to start the 3^rd marking period and second semester on Tuesday, January 6. Thank you for your continued support of Lake Nona High School – we’re looking forward to 2026 – and as always, GO LIONS! 

With Pride,

Mrs. Nikki Campbell
Principal, Lake Nona High School
 

Student Parking Reminder

Students parking on campus must have a valid school parking decal. Those found parking without a decal will be referred to Discipline. If your student needs a decal, please contact Lisa Wilcox at Lisa.Wilcox@ocps.net

Additionally, once students arrive and park their vehicles, they are expected to report directly into school. Students should not remain in their vehicles or loiter in the parking lot.

If you have any questions, please reach out to: Ms. Killingsworth – Discipline: LaKisya.Killingsworth@ocps.net or Mr. Root – Parking: Caleb.Root@ocps.net

Safety Reminder

Please be alert and aware when driving —especially along Narcoossee Road, which continues to experience extremely heavy congestion. Unfortunately, we’ve already seen multiple accidents this school year involving both adults and teenagers.

It takes all of us—drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and families—to keep our community safe. Please help us by practicing and reinforcing safe habits:

• Put cellphones down while driving
• Follow the speed limit and take extra caution near the school and all crosswalks
• Limit distractions and stay alert
• Use your turn signals so other drivers can anticipate your movements

Drop-Off Reminder: If you are dropping off your student, please use the Tyson Road light entrance if you are heading North on Narcoossee and making a Left. Making a left at the main entrance is reserved for visitors, substitutes, and staff only. If you are traveling south on Narcoosee, please enter near the security booth then move to the right lane as quickly and safely as possible. Please follow the directions of all of the staff in the parking lot.

Student Safety on Foot, Bike, or Scooter: If your student walks, bikes, or uses a motorized scooter:

• Remind them to look both ways before crossing
• Encourage responsible behavior and awareness of surroundings
• If they are 16 or younger, they must wear a helmet when riding any type of bike or scooter

Please remember: once students leave campus, the school has no jurisdiction. It truly takes parents and our community working together to teach and model safe behavior.

additional reminders: 

• Though we encourage you and your student to follow social media accounts, ParentSquare is the official LNHS communication platform.
• Xello is the college and career platform that OCPS will continue to use grades K-12. All schools will implement Xello lessons this school year. At LNHS we will do this through their ELA classes.
• The Code of Student Conduct requires that wireless communications device(s) be silenced and put away (in a backpack or purse) during the school day while on campus, including lunchtime and transitioning between classes. This includes cellphones and earbuds/headphones.
