Fort Lauderdale High School is one of the oldest continuously functioning
high schools in Broward County, Florida. Founded in 1899, it was the only high school in the 68 mile stretch between Miami and West Palm Beach. In 1915 tourist trade increased in Fort Lauderdale, which boosted the population of residents in the county. In a land slide vote, the county decided to construct a new school that was able to accommodate more students. In 1915, Fort Lauderdale High had their first graduating class of five boys. In 1963, Fort Lauderdale High moved from its original downtown location to its present location on Northeast Fourth Avenue. The school is home to numerous magnet programs, including one of the states most prominent pre-law programs and the Advanced Studies Institute, a program which allows students to follow an AP and Honors level-track which places them in sophomore standing their first year of university. Recently, a third magnet was added: the Cambridge Program, sponsored by Cambridge University. For more information on FLHS, click here. |
