Huntington Park High School is a public high school in Huntington Park, California, part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. ==History== The First Grammar School was initially built in 1904. The election was held with 21 registered voters casting ballots. The district was established in 1905, and the first school opened in a 12' board shack, with 13 students of all ages. The families of the students chipped in to hire a young high school girl as teacher, at a monthly fee of $50. Huntington Park Union High School District was organized in 1909. The cornerstone for the first high school building was laid on December 2, 1909, and the first commencement exercise was held there on June 17, 1910, with Miss Olive Petties being the single graduating student. In January 1932, Huntington Park Union High School District, as a political entity, passed out of existence. The Huntington Park Union High School now became a unit of the Los Angeles City school system, and its official name became Huntington Park High School. The school itself went through two crises. The first building burned down on 11 October 1911. The second building was wrecked by the violent earthquake of March 10, 1933.〔http://www.hphsalumni.org/HPHS_History.htm〕 In 2005, South East High School in South Gate opened, relieving Huntington Park.〔(laschools.org )〕 When South East opened, it took over areas in the Huntington Park High boundary within the City of South Gate and Walnut Park; Huntington Park High School previously served all of Walnut Park.〔〔"(South Gate city, California )."
