Los Angeles City High School District

Los Angeles City High School District was a school district that served high school-aged residents in the Los Angeles, California, United States area. At times the district included residents of Beverly Hills and Culver City.

History

The district formed in 1898; it served high school students while Los Angeles City School District and various other elementary school districts served elementary school and junior high school students."

The high school district expanded its territory by annexing other high school districts and including other elementary school districts in its boundaries. In 1906 the district took the Jewell Union High School District. In 1909 the district took the Hollywood Union High School District and the San Pedro High School District. In 1910 it took the Wilmington Union High School District. In 1913 it took the Van Nuys High School District. In 1914 it took the San Fernando Union High School District. In 1916 the Owensmouth Union became a part of the Los Angeles High School District.

On August 18, 1921, the following districts were included in the Los Angeles City High School District: Alturas, Beverly Hills, Calabasas, Castaic, Cornell, Culver City, Felton, Garripatos (the district was later renamed to Topanga), Honby, Las Vergenes, Liberty, Live Oak, New Era, Newhall, San Francisquito, San Martinez and Saugus. The high school district annexed Venice Union High School District in 1925. On July 22, 1929 the Oak Flat district was transferred to the Los Angeles City High School District from the Antelope Valley Joint High School District.

On July 22, 1932 the Huntington Park School District became included in the Los Angeles City High School District. On March 23, 1936 Beverly Hills left the Los Angeles City High School District and formed the Beverly Hills High School District; by operation of law this became the Beverly Hills Unified School District.

On December 29, 1942 the Bee School District was transferred from Antelope Valley Joint Union High School District to the Los Angeles City High School District. On January 25, 1945 Culver City left the Los Angeles High School District in a similar manner to Beverly Hills. On January 30, 1945 the Santa Clarita Union High School District (also known as the William S. Hart Union High School District) took the Bee, Newhall, Castaic Union and Saugus Union school districts.

The district disappeared on July 1, 1961 when the elementary and high school districts merged into the Los Angeles Unified School District. The annexation left the Topanga School District and the Las Vergenes Union High School District (then renamed to the West County Union High School District) as separate remnants of the high school district.
