Longview High School today is the home of over 2,400 students who attend classes in a beautiful three-story structure, located on Tomlinson Parkway north of downtown Longview. It was designed by architects Robert Allen & Associates of Longview and Perkins & Will of Chicago. The coliseum and ninth grade addition were designed by Rick Malloy of Longview.
Completed in 1976, it is a school with teachers and students who are representative of a richly diverse community. Its history goes back to the late 1880s and spans years of growth in Longview, consolidation with smaller schools including Judson Grove, and total integration in 1970.
The former Judson High School is now Judson Middle School, one of three middle schools in the Longview Independent School District.
The combining of the early schools through the years laid the foundation for one great high school, home of the Lobos. The special heritage that belongs to the Lobos is recounted in these web pages. The brief histories were written by June Lassiter, Public Information Coordinator for LISD, and can be viewed by selecting the following links: Longview High School, Womack High School, Judson High School.
