High school is a name used in some parts of the world, and particularly in North America, to describe the last segment of compulsory secondary education. It is preceded by primary education. High school is also the name used to describe the institution in which the final stage of compulsory education takes place. In the United States, high schools generally consist of grades 9, 10, 11, and 12, although the inclusion of grade 9 varies by school district.
 
Ulysses S. Grant High School is a secondary school in the east side of the San Fernando Valley in the Valley Glen neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. It is part of district 2 of the Los Angeles Unified School District. Its mascot is the Lancer and the school colors are brown, orange, and white. The school motto is what we are to be we are now becoming.
 
Grant was opened in 1959 and in 2006, Grant was relieved of many 9th and 10th graders by the opening of East Valley High School, which planned to phase in grades 11 and 12 in the following two years. The school newspaper is called the Odyssey in reference to President Grant's first name Ulysses the main character in Homer's epic The Odyssey. There is a school tradition that, on or about April 1, a satirical issue is distributed called the Oddity and it contains comical and irreverent articles. Past articles have been about finals being canceled, the school being closed, rats infesting the cafeteria, clothing optional classes, etc.
 
The annual school yearbook is called the Shield. Connected to Grant High School is a communications technology magnet, which emphasizes smaller class sizes and communications technology electives including film or video production, broadcast journalism, computer technology, graphic communications, and performing arts.
 
Grant High School has been featured in a number of film and television productions. Students, faculty, and alumni due to the long strip of road paralleling the concrete Tujunga Wash know this as Lancer Lane, and available for free parking combined with the ease of moving equipment around.

The spirit of dedication encompasses everyone at Grant High School. They are committed to the success of students and aspire to help reach every individual’s ultimate career goals. Their campus services are the tangible results of commitment to career counseling, financial aid planning and placement services.
