Lynnwood High School is a high school in the Edmonds School District, located near Bothell, Washington. The school has approximately 1400 students enrolled for grades 9-12.
School information
The school day is based on a 6-period schedule with each class lasting 50 minutes. There is an integrated period for silent reading which is called advisory. There is also a portion of time set aside before and after school to help students with their learning called study club or 7th period, although this is optional.
Lynnwood High School's mascot is a Chimera. The Chimera is one of several mascots that have been associated with the school–the original mascot was the longhorn steer, and for portions of the 1980s, the mascot was the Royal. The current mascot is the Chimera but it is still commonly referred to as the "Royals".
New Lynnwood High School
The new building is located on North Road, east of Lynnwood. The funding for construction was approved in 2006 and after a wooded area was logged construction began in June 2007.
The new school opened on September 8, 2009. As of September 20, 2009 minor parts of the school are still under construction.
Green Features
The new school has many environmentally friendly features such as skylights to bring in natural sunlight into the building instead of using a light. Despite protests from some environmental groups the school was built on a wooded area. West of the new football field you can see the remaining evergreen trees. A natural area of the school still exists. North of the building is a pond with a small amount of trees.
A storm water detention pond north of the football field diverts potently polluted water into the pond instead of it going into local creeks and waterways.
Notable alumni
Randy Couture - UFC fighter, and actor.
