LTHS serves about 3,700 students from the<br />
communities of Crest Hill, Fairmont, Homer<br />
Glen, Lockport, Homer Township and<br />
Lockport Township.<br />
LTHS has two campuses for one high<br />
school. Central Campus opened in 1909<br />
and today serves freshman students. East<br />
Campus, which opened in 1964, serves<br />
sophomores, juniors and seniors.<br />
LTHS is known for its commitment to<br />
academics, activities and athletics and the<br />
achievement of its students in all three<br />
areas. An extensive curriculum and an<br />
experienced faculty provide the finest<br />
academic opportunities for all students. A<br />
recent addition to East Campus, along with<br />
the technological upgrades that followed,<br />
gives students an unparalleled opportunity<br />
to utilize the most cutting-edge technology<br />
available.<br />
This mix of historic significance and<br />
futuristic technology that students are<br />
exposed to at our campuses gives them a<br />
unique advantage not available in other<br />
districts: two distinct buildings with the<br />
same goal of creating a nurturing and<br />
challenging environment in which all<br />
students achieve success.<br />
