Lake Clifton Eastern High School (LCEHS), currently and officially the Lake Clifton Campus (LCC), originally Lake Clifton High School (LCHS), although locally Lake or Lake Clifton (LC) for short, was a four-year, public high school located at 2801 Saint Lo Drive in the northeast area known as Clifton Park of Baltimore City, Maryland, U.S.A.
Founded in the early 1970s, the school was named after the Lake Clifton Reservoir before it was changed in 1985. At that time, Lake Clifton High School combined with Eastern High School to reflect the merger. At the conclusion of the 2004—2005 school year, the large school was recommended for closure and as of 2010 it is a campus comprising two smaller secondary schools, Heritage High School and the REACH! Partnership School.

“Turn back,
back
to the lake of Delos;
lest all the song notes
pause and break
across a blood-stained throat....”

“And not by eastern windows only,
When daylight comes, comes in the light;
In front the sun climbs slow, how slowly!
But westward, look, the land is bright!”
—Arthur Hugh Clough (1819–1861)
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
—Bible: New Testament Ephesians 6:12.
“I have often told you that I am that little fish who swims about under a shark and, I believe, lives indelicately on its offal. Anyway, that is the way I am. Life moves over me in a vast black shadow and I swallow whatever it drops with relish, having learned in a very hard school that one cannot be both a parasite and enjoy self-nourishment without moving in worlds too fantastic for even my disordered imagination to people with meaning.”
—Zelda Fitzgerald (1900–1948)
