Because of extreme heat and fire risk, the LHS Band has decided to cancel its sale of fireworks this summer to support the LG Fire Department and to be as safe as possible. This annual fundraiser has been crucial for paying for trips and festival costs on a yearly basis. If you are interested in supporting the band this year, consider making a donation to "LHS Band" using the following link or mail a check to the following address:

La Grande students and families,
Today at 1:25 pm the fire alarm went off at La Grande High School. Students and staff were exited from the building and LGFD responded quickly to our campus. The situation has been resolved with no damage to the school site. Simultaneously, there were reports of fireworks in the school parking lot and a school shooting. We have confirmed that students, in violation of school rules, set fireworks off in the student parking lot. There is no evidence indicating the presence of a weapon or shots fired, at any time, today at La Grande High School. We remain committed to school safety.
The first day of school for Grades K-7 & Grade 9 is August 30th. The first day for Grades 8, 10, 11 & 12 is August 31st. See you this fall!
