Lorne Akins Junior High School
About Our School
“Welcome Home, You Belong Here!” is not just our motto, but something we live everyday. Junior High is an exciting time in a student's journey as they further mould their identity and learn independence. We believe that it's our job to guide them as they grow.

Jr. High is an amazing place to be, but we also know that there can be challenges to overcome. We focus heavily on mental support for our Gators and their families, have a very active SOGI group, and dedicated literacy and numeracy support.
