Don Reynolds opened Lake Mary High School as its first principal in 1981 and personally established the culture that made the school what it is today. During his 30 years as an educator, one of his most important contributions to high school sports was his leadership in the fight against steroid abuse by student-athletes. Our football stadium now bears the name of this man who built Lake Mary High School from the inside out and whose focus on creating an elite athletic program from the beginning paved the way for the current student-athletes.Reynolds was enshrined in the 1995 FHSAA Athletic Hall of Fame for his contributions as an Administrator.
