Lake Forest Honor's Night
The Lake Forest Middle School (LFMS) Honors Night for the 2025-2026 school year was held at the North Cleveland Church of God. The evening celebrated academic excellence, character, and service among sixth, seventh, and eighth-grade students. Keynote speaker Dr. Linda Cash emphasized that true success is found in integrity and kindness rather than just grades.
The event featured the debut of the Bruin Scholars Program and concluded with the school’s highest individual honors, the crowning of Mr. and Miss LFMS.
