Now the Director of School Safety & Security for the Rockwood School District, Tyrone returns to campus to share his powerful story of resilience, growth, and community impact.

October is a great time to check in with yourself and others as the semester gets busier. Prioritize your mental and physical health, make time for connection, and help us continue building a campus where every Laker feels welcomed, valued, and included.
Student Development & Wellness is here to support the whole student with free counseling and wellness services, health education and nursing support, benefits and basic-needs navigation, and the Laker Food Pantry. You can support fellow Lakers, too—donations of shelf-stable food and personal care items are being collected for our fall food drive throughout October.
