DuVal High School (DHS), is a comprehensive public four-year high school in Lanham, Maryland. DuVal HS opened in 1959 to relieve overcrowding from other local area high schools. The original building was a one-story, 38-classroom school, situated at what used to be the small village of Good Luck. The school was named in honor of Gabriel Duvall, a U.S. Representative from the second district of Maryland from November 11, 1794, to March 28, 1796, Chief Justice of the General Court of Maryland from 1796 to 1802, and Comptroller of the Treasury from 1802 through 1811. Duvall was appointed to the United States Supreme Court to replace fellow Marylander Samuel Chase in 1811 and served until 1835, when he resigned due to old age. The spelling of the name now conforms with that used by descendents of Duvall. The first mailing address of DuVal was simply; Glenn Dale and Telegraph Roads, Glenn Dale, MD. The current address is; 9880 Good Luck Road in the unincorporated town of Lanham in Prince George's County, Maryland 20706. Mr. Mark Covington is the Principal. ==Academics== DuVal High School offers a variety of academic programs and courses such as: Air Force JROTC, Art, Business Education ,English, ESOL, Family and Consumer Sciences, Foreign Language, Health, Library Media Center, Mathematics, Music, Physical Education, Project Lead the Way, Science, Social Studies, Special Education and Technology Education.
