• Overview

Lake Oswego High School was first opened in 1950. Since then it has grown from a six-year school to a three-year and (in 1971) to a four-year school. A broad range of academically challenging classes and strong programs in the arts and athletics provide opportunities to meet the needs of all students. In its history the school and others located in Lake Oswego, such as Lakeridge High School, have received many honors for scholarship, leadership, and athletics on the local, state, and national level.

From its location and name, Lake Oswego High School adopted a nautical theme, with a nickname of "Lakers".

In the fall of 2005, students entered a completely rebuilt building. Built on the same campus, the new building replaced the old one. Every classroom has built-in projectors and SMART boards. A state of the art theater and art classrooms, cherry paneling and green marble staircases grace the halls. However, some of the construction was rather shoddy, causing, among other problems, the roof to leak into the walls. In response, there are many lawsuits between the school, the builders, the inspector, and the contractor. From June to November 2010, the construction work to fix the schools structural problems was completed.

Construction of the new school included a new gymnasium. The new gym replaced the “old” gym and created a problem with naming the existing “new gym.” In 2004, the previously called “new” gym (which prior to being called the "new" gym, was called the "boy's" gym, after its construction in the early 1960s) was renamed the "East Gym" and the most recently constructed gym was deemed the "West Gym."
