Why We're SLP Panther Proud

Panther student-athlete Macy Smith signed her national letter of intent to continue her education and join the California State University, Northridge (CSUN) women’s basketball team for the 2021-2022 school year.

Six students from Spring Lake Park High School were named Commended Students in the National Merit Scholarship Program. They are among about 34,000 students throughout the nation recognized for their exceptional academic promise. 

Congratulations to SLPHS teacher Lori Henry for being named the 2020-2021 Minnesota Association of Family and Consumer Sciences (MAFCS) Teacher of the Year

Natalie Horwath, a senior at Lighthouse School for Gifted and Insatiable Learners, has been named a National Merit semifinalist. More than 1.5 million juniors entered the competition last spring by taking the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT). Natalie was 1 of only 288 Minnesota students to qualify as a semifinalist.

Spring Lake Park High School and Anoka High School are excited to welcome Dana Romaker as their new head girls’ hockey coach.

"Spring Lake Park Schools have prepared me for my future by creating a safe environment for me to grow while learning class content as well as how to be a better person every day."

"I'm SLP Panther Proud because I was able to be apart of a school where the teachers and staff became my friends and my biggest supporters. I will never be able to thank them enough for the continued support and advice I've received throughout my time at SLP."

"What makes me Panther Proud is knowing that I am surrounded by so many students who are eager to help their fellow classmates and the surrounding community. Volunteering is a huge thing at SLP, and I am happy that I got to be a part of a class that cares so much about going out of their way to help others."
