Welcome to Lamar High School

Principal: Rita Graves

Lamar High School is an International Baccalaureate school whose goal is to provide the best opportunity for a diverse group of students to receive a rigorous, internationally accredited education, with a broad range of extracurricular activities, in a safe and nurturing environment. The goal of the IB is for students to be challenged academically, while also finding creative and physical fitness outlets, getting involved in the community around them, and developing a global view that takes the student beyond their immediate environment.

TTM

This year we have built in a time during the day for students to take advantage of the many resources available to them on campus. It is meant to be a time when students can get extra help from teachers, work with groups on projects, or simply take care of their business.

1-800-STUCO

Lamar's student council is a group of students who are responsible for most activities that go on throughout the school. Our main purpose is to be the voice for the students and to make sure that our school is full of spirit and fun. We always aim to be as inclusive as possible and that’s why we now are having a Google form that will always be open to comments, questions, and concerns on how you would like to improve our school.
