Lexington High School originally occupied this building from 1854 to 1902.
Existing
Lexington High School's campus consists of a central quadrangle (Quad), four main academic buildings (Arts & Humanities, World Language, Mathematics, Science), a field house, and a pair of modular classrooms (mods). The Quad is bounded by the Arts & Humanities building (on two sides), the Science building, and a covered walkway between the Science building and the World Language building.[8]
Future Plans
Lexington High School's buildings suffer from a lack of space, an aging construction, and congestion. 100% of the science classrooms and 30% of general education classrooms do not meet the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) standards for recommended square footage, and the school received a "Does Not Meet Standard" on the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) review of its campus in 2008 and 2020.[9]
As of November 2023 there are ongoing plans to build a new school, with Dore+Whittier having been selected as the Owner's Project Manager, and SMMA as the architect.[9]
Students and faculty
As of the 2022-23 school year, LHS had an enrollment of 2,303. With 184.4 classroom teachers (on a FTE basis), the school operates with a student–teacher ratio of 12.:1.[10] As of 2019, minority enrollment accounts for 54.1% of the student body, a roughly 275% increase over the past two decades driven by a 400% (+/- 10%) increase in the Asian and Asian-American population. There were 135 students (6.5% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 29 (1.4% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[11][12][13]
The math department of the Lexington Public Schools system has received national merit through the Mathematical Association of America, as the Edyth May Sliffe Award has been won by 8 Lexington Public Schools teachers (5 from the high school, and 3 from the middle schools) a total of 11 times. Lexington High School also has the most two-time winners (3 teachers; no teacher can win it more than twice).[14]

He expected DeGuglielmo, a former football standout at Lexington High School, to be himself and attack the job in his own way."
