Lake Drive School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing

Our Lake Drive students are getting ready to move on to middle school!

Congratulations on completing your journey in the Lake Drive building. We are so proud of all you have accomplished and wish you continued success as you begin this exciting new chapter. 🎓

On Friday, June 5, three of our MLHS students participated in the Share Time Completion Ceremony for Morris County Vocational School of Technology held at CCM.

Two students will receive their certificates from Fundamentals of Food Services and one student will receive his certificate from Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.

We are beyond proud of their achievements and their hard work over the last two years!

Field Day wouldn’t be complete without the annual Student vs. Teacher Kickball game. This year’s champions? The teachers!! 🏆

Last week, our Family BBQ was a huge success. The older students helped set up the chairs and tablecloths. We have over 300 people in attendance.

The MLHS chapter of the JrNAD, led by advisors Deanna Richter and Margo C completed a service project in which they gathered donations to make care packages for patients undergoing chemotherapy. This service project was undertaken in honor of former JrNAD co advisor and beloved teacher , Sue Alese. The care packages were donated to the Oncology/Hematology Specialists located right here in Mountain Lakes.

The Lake Drive Program students at MLHS, through the support of school and community donations, were able to assemble 75 care packages which included special handwritten notes of encouragement for patients as they begin or continue their treatment.

ML Prom 2026! Looking sharp, smiling big, and making memories.

Yesterday marked our final Wingman gathering of the school year. As our high school students headed out, we lined the halls and gave them a round of applause to show our appreciation for the positive impact they’ve made throughout the year.

A special shoutout goes to our three Wingman graduating seniors. Thank you for being outstanding role models and leaders for our younger students. 🎓

Students in Mrs. Gonzalez class made models of the Solar System. Students and teachers voted for their favorite one.

Behind every successful program is a team that shows up, supports one another, and leads with purpose 💙

Here are a few of our amazing staff members. Thank you for all that you do!
