Lewisville High School

Lewisville High School was originally located on Purnell Street in downtown Lewisville. LHS moved to its current location to Main Street and Valley Parkway in 1968. At that time, the school was located on farmland at the edge of Lewisville. LHS had several additions since then due to the city of Lewisville's large growth. In the 2012-2013 school year, Lewisville High School officially opened its new building immediately adjacent to the old building originally built in 1968 yet still on the same campus. The following school year, a new auditorium opened. The old building's demolition started exactly on the last day of the 2011-2012 school year. The old campus was cleared for the use of additional parking. Lewisville High School currently consists of three different campuses. Killough Lewisville High School North, "North Campus" and Harmon Lewisville High School South serve ninth and tenth graders. The LHS "Main Campus" primarily serves eleventh and twelfth graders. For extracurricular activities students are shuttled from the Killough and Harmon campuses to the Main campus. Together, their 2014 enrollment was 3,980 students, making LHS the largest high school in the district. == Feeder schools ==

Band Lewisville's marching band has earned a "1" (the best score possible) at the UIL Region Contest every year since 2000. In competitions the marching band sticks to an old-school military marching style, concentrating on marching in lines and blocks, with spartan use of thematic elements. Athletics Lewisville High School athletic teams compete in District 5 of Region I in the University Interscholastic League's 6-A division. One LHS athlete, Track and Field sprinter Earvin Parker, has been named the National High School Athlete of the Year by the National High School Coaches Association. In 2003, Parker ran the fastest 100-meter race and second-fastest 200-meter race in the United States. He was also named to USA Today's All-USA boys track and field team. Football The school's football team were state finalists in 1972, state semifinalists in 1979, and won state championships in 1993 and 1996 (at which time the team was featured on the "Team Cheerios" cereal box). The 1996 Farmer football team set the championship game record for most yards gained on the ground (547, the team did not attempt a single pass during the game), while the combined score of 92 in the game set a new record for most points in an 11-man title game. An earlier team achieved notability for a different reason in 1946, when members of the Fighting Farmer football team chased a bank robber until he was exhausted, allowing for his capture by an unarmed gas station attendants. The team finished fourth in the district's standings at the end of the regular season, prompting many analysts to label the team as an "underdog" throughout the tournament. Prior to the final state tournament in Austin, WFAA journalist Ted Madden wrote "if any team looks like it doesn't belong in Austin, it's this 13-loss team from Lewisville." Baseball stadiums Farmers Field is named after the school's mascot, the "Fighting Farmers." It is located adjacent to the Lewisville High School football field and softball field. It is the home of the Lewisville Fighting Farmers baseball team and the former home of the Lewisville Lizards of the Continental Baseball League. The Lewisville Lizards CBL team was renamed and moved to Texarkana, Texas at the end of the 2007 season. == Notable alumni ==
