      LaSalle-Peru Township High School, also known as LaSalle-Peru High School, LPHS, or simply L-P, is a public four-year high school located at 541 Chartres Street in LaSalle, Illinois, a city in LaSalle County, Illinois, in the Midwestern United States. LPHS serves the communities and surrounding areas of LaSalle, Peru, Oglesby, Tonica, and Dimmick. The campus is located 18 miles west of Ottawa, Illinois. The high school takes students from the following townships: Dimmick, Waltham, Peru, LaSalle, Utica, Deer Park, Eden, Vermillion, Hope, and Richland.


      History


      LaSalle-Peru Township High School was built in 1897–98, occupying buildings on 5th, 6th and Chartres Streets in LaSalle. The Thomas J. McCormack Library was built in 1920. LaSalle-Peru-Oglesby Junior College was formed at the school in 1924. L-P-O Junior College eventually became Illinois Valley Community College in 1968, and is now located in Oglesby, Illinois. The school's clock tower was built in 1927 and is still in use today. Matthiessen Memorial Auditorium was opened in 1928. Howard Fellows Stadium was opened in 1937. Howard Fellows Stadium was massively renovated in the summer of 1995. There have been many additions throughout the years at L-P High School, including the West Gymnasium, Area Career Center and Dolan Building.
      In 1952, the LP band director at the time skirted the policies of LaSalle, which, at that point, was a "Sundown town", to have an integrated band. He was trying to coordinate the visit of a Big Ten school, and the university had African American members, and the director accommodated them accordingly. This event is largely considered to have been the beginning of the end of segregation and racism in the Illinois Valley.


      Academics


      On the 2010 Prairie State Achievement Exam, 49% of L-P High School 11th graders met or exceeded standards in Reading. 45% met or exceeded standards in Mathematics, and 50% met or exceeded standards in Science.


      Athletics


      L-P's athletic teams are called the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers compete in essentially the same sports as most mid-size high schools in the Midwest.

      In 2000 LP's Drama team placed first in NCIC and sectional and went on to state competition with their performance of Bang Bang You're Dead.

      In 2009, the baseball team placed 4th in the 3A IHSA state competition.
      On October 9, 2009, the LaSalle-Peru Varsity football team beat rival Geneseo 38 to 36 by making a field goal with 3 seconds left on the clock. This marked the first time LaSalle-Peru had beaten Geneseo in Varsity football since 1919.


      = Conference affiliation

      =
      From 1964 to 2010, the Cavaliers competed in the North Central Illinois Conference (NCIC), in that conference's larger-school division. Significant changes in conference alignments occurred in the 2000s, however, and starting with the 2010–2011 school year, LPHS became a charter member of the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference. The NIB-12 includes most of the larger schools from the NCIC, as well as many members of a dissolving conference called the Western Sun Conference. After the NIB 12 dissolved in 2018, LPHS joined the Interstate 8 Conference in 2019.

      Come all students of LP High,
      We will shout our cheers to the sky.
      'Neath our colors flying on high
      Loyalty will never die!
      Wave our banners of green and red,
      Brightly flashing high overhead.
      Always loyal, La Salle-Peru
      Great our love for you.
      School of honor, glory and fame,
      With true pride we're praising your name.
      Known throughout the country and state
      As a school that's truly great.
      Everyone is singing your praise,
      All our voices loudly we raise.
      Aways upright, noble and true,
      Hurrah! La Salle-Peru!
      Red And Green was written by Susan Jane Hoelle.
