Dr. Laura Mayberry, a native of Fernandina Beach, FL., is a dedicated educator with over two decades of service within Clay County. Following a successful 14-year tenure as a classroom teacher at Orange Park High School, she transitioned into leadership and has served as an Assistant Principal for the past six years. Currently, she oversees the junior class and manages vital school operations, including state testing, digital communications, and social media presence. Outside of her professional life, Dr. Mayberry is an avid reader and a talented multi-instrumentalist who enjoys playing both the piano and guitar.


Ms. James is excited to be back for her second year as Assistant Principal at Orange Park High School. Originally from Kentucky, Ms. James moved to Florida in 2015 and quickly traded the rolling hills for life on the water. With a background in education spanning Pre-K through high school, she joined Clay County in 2020 and served as both a teacher and a Dean before stepping into her current leadership role.
A deep passion for personal growth drives her, and she believes that every student has the potential to fulfill their biggest dreams. As a mother of four and a proud grandmother of one, Ms. James approaches leadership with a "family-first" heart, striving to ensure every Raider feels supported and empowered.
When she isn’t on campus, you’ll likely find her soaking up the Florida sunshine. Whether she’s boating, hiking, camping, or spending a day at the beach with her family, she loves staying active outdoors. Ms. James is looking forward to another fantastic year of collaborating with the staff, students, and the entire Orange Park community!
Mr. G., says, "Ms. James is one of the nicest people I have ever worked with. She has a heart for people and a undeniable passion for all students."

April is the Month of the Military Child, and we invite all students, staff, and families to "Purple Up!" on Wednesday, April 15th.
Why purple? It’s the color that symbolizes all branches of the military coming together—a blend of Army green, Marine Corps red, and Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard blue. By wearing purple, we show our military-connected students that we appreciate their strength, sacrifices, and resilience.
Let’s turn our hallways and classrooms into a sea of purple on April 15th!
