Lexington High School is a public 9-12 high school located in Lexington, Massachusetts, United States. The school's mascot is the Minuteman. Students attending Lexington High School generally attended one of the town's two 6th-8th grade middle schools, Jonas Clarke Middle School and William Diamond Middle School. In turn, Clarke is fed by three of the town's six elementary schools: Bowman, Bridge, and Harrington; while Diamond is fed by the other three: Estabrook, Fiske, and Hastings.

In 2014, Lexington was ranked as the 19th best high school in the country by Newsweek on its "America's Top Public Schools" list.[5]

In 2013, Boston Magazine ranked Lexington as the 2nd best high school in the Greater Boston area. Out of 50 high schools, Lexington had the highest SAT average, 1903 out of 2400.[6] In the 2013 graduating class of 478 students, the mean Critical Reading score was 625; the mean Mathematics score was 656; the mean Writing score was 622.

Lexington's colors are blue and gold, and its teams are nicknamed the Minutemen, in honor of the colonial-era militiamen.

Campus

Lexington High School's facilities are divided into four buildings.

The Arts and Humanities House, contains the bulk of the following departments: English, Social Studies, Fine and Performing Arts, and Physical Education. It also has the Donald J. Gillespie, Jr. Auditorium, the Ralph Lord Gymnasium, and a fieldhouse. Commons I and Commons II are used as cafeterias and meeting places. The library and the main administration office are also in this building. Thus, the Arts and Humanities building is informally and frequently called the "main" building by many students. The gym, locker rooms, etc. are numbered in the 900s. Other rooms in the Arts and Humanities building are numbered by floor, 100s for the first floor and 200s for the second floor.

The Science House contains the Science department. The building contains the "Science Lecture Hall" (SLH), which has many purposes, and is used for, among other things, math competitions and detentions. Because of the detentions, the chairs and tables are known to have been scarred by delinquent etchings and markings. Rooms are numbered by floor, 300s for the first floor and 400s for the second floor.

The World Language House contains the World Language and the Health Education departments, and rooms are numbered by floor, 500s for the first floor and 600s for the second floor.

The Math House contains the Math department, as well as the LABBB program, and rooms are numbered by floor, 700s for the first floor and 800s for the second floor.

The "Quad" is an outdoor common area. It is bounded by the Main building (on two sides), the Science building, and a covered walkway between the Science building and the Foreign Language building.

Senate

In the 1980s, there was a movement to give students a bigger voice within the school. Soon enough a new school constitution was ratified, creating a new school Student/Faculty Senate. The Senate allots to the teachers and the students the power to make decisions about the implementation of policies within the school.

The philosophy behind the creation of the Senate (as quoted from the senate constitution[7]) is as follows:

All members of the school community should have a meaningful voice in determining the policies of the school, in promoting a positive school climate, and in shaping the future of the school. It is essential that each member be kept informed through effective communications and have the power to influence decisions made at Lexington High School. For this purpose the Lexington High School Senate is established.

The Senate is not without its checks and balances, though. The school principal has veto power over the decisions of the Senate, but the Senate can choose to override the principal's veto with a three-fourths supermajority vote.

The Senate is made up of two elected groups, namely, staff representatives and student representatives. The faculty representatives are chosen at large, one representative for every ten high school staff, with the stipulation that at least one representative is elected from each of the various departments. Student representatives are elected one representative for every 50 members of the student body. The number of student representatives is determined annually based on current enrollment in grades 8-11, and then divided among the classes per the school constitution. Student representatives allotted to a class are elected by that class at large.

Up to five seats are open for students to represent under-represented groups. Said groups must petition the Senate for such representation.

The 1993 Massachusetts Education Reform Legislation makes institutions like the LHS Senate an advisory body only, but LHS Principals since 1993 have continued to work with Senate members to reach compromise legislation so the voice of the LHS Senate will still shape school policy.

Demographics

In the 2011-2012 school year, Lexington High School had 1,991 students enrolled. 538 students were in 9th grade, 477 were in 10th grade, 470 were in 11th grade, and 506 were in 12th grade. The student body is 58.8% White, 29.2% Asian, 4.7% African American, 3.9% Hispanic, 3.3% multiracial, 0.2% Native American, and 0.1% Pacific Islander.[8]

Curriculum and class schedule

Lexington High School offers a wide variety of courses for its students.[9]

Classes begin at 7:45 a.m. and end at 2:25 p.m. Lexington High School operates on a block schedule containing 32 blocks per week, with classes between 45 and 55 minutes long. The blocks are organized in eight groups of four, assigned letter designations from A to H. The first A block of the week is denoted A1; the second, A2; etc. Meetings of the school senate take place during first block (denoted as X block) on Wednesdays; classes do not begin on Wednesday until 8:35. Z block is the 35-minute period between 2:25 pm and 3:00 pm; clubs and athletics are not allowed to begin mandatory meetings during this time to allow students the opportunity to meet with teachers. Among other times, students are also generally able to meet with teachers during X block. Students are required to attend homeroom on Tuesdays and Thursdays for announcements.

Credits at Lexington High School are usually awarded 1/4 credit per block-per-week per quarter. That is, a full-year, four block-per-week course will usually earn four credits. A half-year, 4 block-per-week course will usually earn two credits. A quarter-long, two block-per-week course (such as a gym course) will usually earn 1/2 credit. Hypothetically, a full-year class that meets only once a week will earn one credit. Most English, math, social studies and foreign language classes are worth four credits, as classes in these departments usually meet during one of these groups of blocks. Science classes are generally worth five credits, while the AP-level classes in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, are worth six credits, as they meet for six blocks a week, including a double lab block.

As there are 32 blocks per week, the maximum number of credits most students take is 32. There are some exceptions. For example, some (if not all) of the jazz ensembles meet after school, and they are worth four credits. Students taking this can achieve 36 credits. Students may also obtain transfer credit by taking classes at an approved location (such as the Harvard Extension School). Usually, partial credit will not be given for completing part of a class.

Lexington High School requires that all seniors maintain a schedule of at least 26 credits. Sophomores, and juniors are required a schedule of at least 27 credits. Freshmen are required a schedule of at least 28 credits (and it is recommended that freshmen take no more than 30 credits).

If a student does not have a class during a particular block, then that student is assigned a study hall, unless the student is a junior or a senior. These students have open campus privileges.

In order to graduate, students who attend LHS for all four high school years must complete the following:

Mathematics

In the previous curriculum, core mathematics classes include each of the following:

The new curriculum, which began in the 2012-2013 school year with the Class of 2016, integrates various parts of the curriculum with the intention of retaining and building on the previous year's content. The senior classes for the new curriculum will not be phased in until the 2015-2016 school year.In the new mathematics curriculum that began in the 2012-2013 school year, core mathematics classes include each of the following:

Lexington High School offers several computer courses which also receive mathematics credit:

Additionally, students may take Accounting 1 (and, upon completion, Accounting 2), a preparatory course for business management or business administration. Both accounting courses are 4 credit courses.

Students are required to accumulate 16 mathematics credits by graduation time.

Science

Most science courses at Lexington High School are full-year, 5 credit classes, as although it meets four times a week, one class period takes two consecutive blocks in order to accommodate labs. The AP classes meet once every day but for two consecutive blocks on one of those days, and are thus full-year, 6 credit classes. Higher classes will usually require teacher recommendations and prerequisites/co-requisites.

Freshmen at Lexington High School are required to take one of three courses of Earth Science, which are designed to introduce students to the basics of astronomy, geology, meteorology and oceanography. Students may take Honors Environmental Earth Science, Environmental Earth Science, or Conceptual Environmental Earth Science. Each are 5 credit classes.

Sophomores, juniors, and seniors usually take one of several courses in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, respectively. For each, there are three levels of courses: AP, Level 1, and Conceptual. As there are two classifications of Advanced Placement courses in physics (1 and C), there are likewise AP levels for physics, as opposed to one for Biology and Chemistry. Biology topics include biochemistry, cell biology, genetics evolution, physiology, anatomy, reproduction, development, biodiversity and ecology. Chemistry topics include the SI metric system of measurement, scientific notation, dimensional analysis, atomic structure, periodic relationships, chemical bonding, gases and kinetic theory, molecular structure, types of chemical reactions and quantitative relationships, solution chemistry, energy relationships, and equilibrium. Physics topics include kinematics, force and motion, momentum, energy, work, wave motion, optics, electrostatics, electricity, and magnetism.

In addition to these regular courses, Lexington High School offers Level 1 Astronomy, a four credit course; and Introduction to Robotics and Engineering, a 2 credit semester-long course. Self-motivated juniors and seniors can also do an individually developed independent research project with a sponsor teacher for variable credit. Students are required to accumulate 18 science credits by graduation time.

English

Students are required to accumulate 16 English credits by graduation time.

Freshmen take Literature and Composition I teamed with World History I in the same group of students, who are in the same homeroom. For instance, a section that meets for Literature and Composition I B block might meet for World History I C block. Teachers in these two courses collaborate extensively. There is no leveling of freshmen English or History classes.

Sophomores take Literature and Composition II, and juniors take American Literature. Both are offered as Level 2, Level 1, and Honors level classes.

Seniors can choose from an array of different year-long English electives. These classes range in topic from Shakespeare to Creative Writing to Dystopias, and are meant to allow seniors to take the English class that they find most interesting.

Social Studies

Students are required to accumulate 16 social studies credits by graduation time. Freshmen take World History I, an unleveled course that covers topics from Ancient Rome, India, and China up to 1350. The course focuses on a largely non-Eurocentric approach. Sophomores then cover the remainder of World History. Juniors are obliged take U.S. History. Seniors have multiple electives to get their remaining credits. Electives include focused history courses and Debate.

Foreign Language

Lexington High School offers sequences of classes in seven languages: ASL, French, German, Italian, Latin, Mandarin and Spanish. Among those classes are Advanced Placement courses in French, Italian, Mandarin, and Spanish. Unlike all of the other languages at Lexington High, ASL is only offered for two years. All other languages are offered for four years.

Students are required to accumulate eight foreign language credits by graduation or generally two classes; many complete a full four years of a foreign language sequence.

Fine and Performing Arts

Many arts classes are worth two credits, meeting four times a week for a semester; and many are worth four credits, meeting four times a week for a full year.

Lexington High School has been well known for its award-winning music program which includes: multiple a cappella groups; three bands (wind ensemble, concert band, and symphonic band); three orchestras (chamber, symphony, and repertoire); and four choir groups. The jazz program includes a renowned jazz ensemble, a big band, a combo, and a septet. In August 2004, Lexington high school was invited to perform at the Edinburgh festival in Scotland.

The music program is under the direction of several faculty members, including: Jeffrey Leonard, a wind and jazz specialist and a Berklee graduate, who conducts the wind ensemble and is the current department head; Justin Aramati, a wind specialist and a New England Conservatory graduate; Patrick Donaher, a specialist in jazz and co-director of the Symphonic Band; Janet Haas, a string specialist throughout the Lexington Public Schools; and Jason Iannuzzi, the choral director. The previous department head was Dr. Walter Pavasaris, the fine and performing Arts coordinator and a string conductor renowned throughout New England.[10]

Students are required to accumulate eight fine and performing arts credits by graduation time.

The Lexington High School Drama department is known for having put on inventive shows led by former head director Steven Bogart. Each year a play is put on in the fall, a musical in the Spring, and a drama festival in the Winter, run and performed by students.

Special projects and grants in the Fine and Performing Arts department are funded by FOLMADS, Inc., a non-profit, tax-exempt organization with the mission of supporting the arts in the Lexington Public Schools.

A cappella is one of the most popular and most competitive activities in the school. Every year there are three shows (also called Jams) to showcase the eight a cappella groups, one for each season. The groups are Euphoria, Guacamole, Mixed Nuts, Onomatopoeia, Peanut Butter & Jelly (PB&J), Pitchpipes, and Rocks Paper Scissors (RPS), and The Gentlemen. Euphoria, Guacamole, and Onomatopoeia are all girls groups, RPS, Pitchpipes and The Gentlemen are all male groups, and Mixed Nuts and PB&J are coed groups. Some groups date back many decades, such as Mixed Nuts and Pitchpipes, while some were created only a few years ago, such as PBJ and The Gentlemen. Each group is completely student run, meaning they run their own auditions, choose and arrange their own songs, and operate autonomously from the high school's music program.[11]

Physical Education

Most physical education classes are worth 0.5 credits, as they are scheduled to meet twice a week for one quarter. The physical education class Athletic Training is worth 1 credit if 6 hours of training at sports is completed.

Students are required to accumulate six physical education credits by graduation time.

Health Education

There are only two classes in this department: Adolescent Health Issues I, taken mostly by freshmen; and Adolescent Health Issues II, taken mostly by juniors. Both classes are worth 1 credit, as both classes meet twice a week for a semester.

Students are required to accumulate 2 health education credits by graduation time. Thus, students must take both Ad. Health I and Ad. Health II to graduate.

Interdisciplinary Studies

There are several classes that count for credits in more than one department, including web design, and dance.

Guidance Seminars

Freshman and Seniors meet with their guidance counselors first quarter, while sophomores and juniors meet with their counselors 3rd quarter. This time is set aside for a 3-week program where counselors get to speak to their students about certain issues. For freshman it's mainly to discuss the transition from middle school into high school. For sophomores, career options is the major focus. For Juniors the purpose is to introduce the idea of taking the PSAT, SAT & ACT. Finally for seniors, the focus is the college admission process.

The Musket

The Musket is the school newspaper for Lexington High School, and has notable popularity around Lexington.

Until 1965, the school newspaper was called The High-Spot; the name was changed to The Musket.[46]

Musket Controversy

In 1997 The Musket ran into controversy by refusing to run an abstinence ad. The Musket's First Amendment rights were maintained with the victory in Yeo v Town of Lexington, a case argued in the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.[47]

In 2005, Fred Phelps, of Topeka, Kansas, and his church (the Westboro Baptist Church) protested the Lexington High School graduation because of the school's support of its gay-straight alliance. The group returned in 2009.[48]

The LABBB Program

The LABBB program, a special education program serving mentally challenged students from surrounding towns (Lexington, Arlington, Burlington, Belmont and Bedford) emphasizes real world skills for the mentally handicapped. LHS students have the opportunity to work with the LABBB students in the Best Buddies program, special events, and classes.[49]
