'''Lima Senior High School''', the only [[high school]] in the Lima City Schools District, was established in 1955, in [[Lima, Ohio]]. There are approximately 1,500 students currently enrolled at Lima Senior.


== Overview ==
'''Lima Senior High School''', the only [[high school]] in the Lima City Schools District, was established in [[1955]], in [[Lima, Ohio]]. When first built, the school had a very small student population, and there was concern that it would not be able to stay open. As the other high schools in Lima were being shutdown due to decreasing population, Lima Senior's student body population increased. There are approximately 1200 students currently enrolled at Lima Senior.
Lima Senior remained in the same building for 49 years until a new building was constructed over two years and completed in 2004. The new Lima Senior High School building contained three small learning communities, consisting of the Performance Based School, the Progressive Academy, and the School of Multiple Intelligences. Each small school followed an instructional model of teaching core subjects of Ohio class requirements. As of the 2013-14 school year, Lima Senior High School has transitioned into a single institution, dissolving the three small schools. [[Lima Stadium|Spartan Stadium]], home to the Lima Senior Spartans, is a registered historic building listed in the National Register on 2002-03-21.
Lima Senior remained in the same building for 49 years, until one year before the building's fiftieth anniversary when it was replaced. The new building was under construction for two years, and was finally finished in 2004. The new Lima Senior High School building contains three smaller schools, including the Performance Based, the Progressive Academy, and the School of Multiple Intelligences. Each school follows a different method of teaching core state of Ohio class requirements. Non-core subjects, such as music, combine students from all three schools.


In 1987, Lima Senior High School began formally recognizing the accomplishments of its alumni who had received local, state or national recognition for achievements in their occupational fields, made significant contributions to society, or performed meritorious service for our country by inducting them into the Lima Senior High School Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame. In 1990 the Hall of Fame was opened up to all students in the Lima City School District and the name was changed to the Lima City Schools Distinguished Hall of Fame. There are currently 87 alumni honored in the Hall of Fame. Every four years, ten to fifteen outstanding alumni are inducted into the Hall of Fame during an induction ceremony and banquet. All Hall of Fame inductees have their portraits displayed in Lima Senior Highschool's cafeteria.<ref>[http://www.limacityschools.org/lcshomepage.nsf/webpagedisplay?openform&Page=HallofFame&nav=smap Lima City Schools<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
