Lincoln-West High School

1

Lincoln-West High School (L-W) is a high school located in Cleveland, in the U.S. state of Ohio and part of the Cleveland Metropolitan School District. The school's name is a by-product of the merger between Cleveland's Lincoln High School and West High School. The current school building was built in 1970. Lincoln-West has a large multicultural and multilingual population including over 41 nationalities and 25 languages. First generation Americans and immigrants represented at the academy include: Puerto Rican, Russian, Ukrainian, Mexican, Dominican, Chinese, Albanian, Nepali, Arab, Urdu, Vietnamese, Laotian/Thai, African, Polish and Croatian. Originally, the school district was divided into the East and West Senate Conferences with L-W sports teams playing in the West. In the late 1970s, the CMSD reorganized the conferences into the North and South Senate Conferences with L-W in the North Senate. The Lincoln-West mascot and nickname is the Wolverines and the school colors are red, white and blue.
