Lewis S. Mills High School
Lewis S. Mills High School is a public high school located in Burlington, Connecticut. It is part of Regional School District #10 serving Harwinton and Burlington, Connecticut.
==History==
Lewis S. Mills High School (often abbreviated LSM) was named after Lewis Sprague Mills, Sr., who served for many years as Rural Supervisor of Schools in both Burlington and Harwinton, influencing the school programs in both towns. He encouraged students to remain in school, asked the town for free textbooks and for students to be examined by the school nurse, and introduced music and art into the curriculum.
In the beginning of November 1960, a contest was held to select the name for the new high school. Some of the options played with the names of the two towns: "Burlwin", "Har-Bur" (which later was used for the middle school), "Burwin", "Burlin", "Harburton" and "Barburl". Students in seventh through twelfth grades put forth submissions and by the end of the month, Lewis S. Mills Regional High School was selected. A few weeks after the announcement, a dedication ceremony was held which featured the school's namesake, delighted to be present in spite of his confinement to a wheelchair. Mr. Mills spoke: "I feel that this honor which has been bestowed on me by the towns of Harwinton and Burlington should be shared with the thousands of people including pupils and parents, who have worked with me through the years." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.region10ct.org/schools/LSM/lsmhist.htm )〕
Until the opening of Mills, students in Burlington and Harwinton continuing to that level would attend high school in neighboring towns, such as Farmington.
