In honor of its 25th anniversary, the Lake Park High School Educational Foundation led a school/community effort to fund and build a Memorial Garden to commemorate deceased students, staff members, and individuals who made a significant contribution to Lake Park High School along with graduates who lost their lives in service to the country. The Memorial Garden is located in front of the auditorium entrance at Lake Park’s West Campus. It was dedicated on May 30, 2015. There is also a small Memorial Area near the auditorium entrance at Lake Park's East Campus.
The focal point of the memorial is a large commemorative stone with an engraved bronze plaque. The memorial stone is surrounded by a tranquil, landscaped garden with a brick walkway which also includes several benches, giving individuals or families a peaceful and relaxed setting in which to seek solace. The bricks surrounding the memorial are available for purchase by family, classmates, colleagues, or friends who wish to memorialize an individual.
