Welcome to Lamar High School

Principal: Rita Graves

Phone: 713-522-5960

Lamar High School is an International Baccalaureate school whose goal it 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.

To prepare for the 2019-2020 school year, I have provided two short surveys that will help us with planning next year. Your participation is needed and appreciated. We look forward to your responses and thank you in advance for your cooperation. Please use the links below:

Jacket Survey – We are considering 1-2 new jacket styles for next year. Which are your favorite styles?

Food Service – We are revamping the breakfast and lunch offerings for the new building. Please respond to the food services survey to help us select food items that you like.
