History
ISLC Middle School is currently located in the South East Middle school portion of the South East Complex completed in October 2005 on a 57.45-acre (232,500 m2) plot of land on the site of the old General Motors plant in South Gate, California. The high school has since been relocated to Legacy High School Complex in 2011 and the middle school will be joining the high school in 2019, with the completion of the International Studies Middle School building across the street from the newly built high school complex.
