As a lifelong student of the Lake Ridge New Tech School Corporation, Paris Voyles has grown into an intelligent, young lady with great goals for herself.  Many Lake Ridge employees have known Paris for quite a long time through her father, a Lake Ridge employee as well.  

When asked what her favorite high school memory is, she simply cannot choose; “Every Calumet memory has been my favorite.”  I know many kiddos here mirror her sentiments.  

Now that you have matured and learned so much through your time at Calumet, we can’t wait to see all you accomplish after you graduate from Cosmetology school.  Maybe you can come back and offer highlights at lunchtime!

“Don’t mess up your freshman year; start out strong!”  Omar can still remember senior students stating this his freshman year and feels compelled to ensure that future students know this as well.  Being the first person in his family to graduate high school is an incredible accomplishment for Omar, and one that he takes very seriously.  So serious in fact, that he will be graduating with an Honors Diploma.   

Being a student in our district his entire life, Omar has many wonderful memories of his time with Lake Ridge.  When asked who his favorite teacher was, he fondly responded, “my fourth grade teacher at Grissom, Mrs. Morbach, she was the best!”  He whimsically told me that he loved his Junior year at Calumet too, even through the pandemic.  Omar is planning on going into the trades, or joining a union as a skilled laborer.  Keep working hard, we know you’re going to accomplish so much more!
