LDS High School

LDS High School

LDS High School (also known as Latter-day Saint High School) was a secondary school located in Salt Lake City, Utah operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The school was closely associated with the still-existing LDS Business College. Both trace their beginnings to the Salt Lake Stake Academy, which started in 1886. Among the graduates of the LDS High School were Gordon B. Hinckley and George W. Romney. In 1931, LDS High School was closed, leaving about 1,000 students to attend public high schools, most notably the newly built South High, which opened in the fall of the same year. The closure was a late example of a process of closure of most LDS run secondary schools in the Utah area.
