Lewis-Palmer High School is a high school in Monument, Colorado. It is one of only two high schools in Lewis-Palmer School District 38, the other being Palmer Ridge High School.
The school reached national attention when it refused to give its 2006 valedictorian, Erica Corder, her diploma after she mentioned Jesus Christ in her commencement speech. As of April 2007, she was pursuing legal action against the school district.[1]
Lewis-Palmer is also ranked as one of Colorado's Best Public High Schools. Though a smoke bomb incident occurred in December 2004, it is known for its safe school environment. With John J. Irwin Awards and other nationally ranked awards, Lewis-Palmer is recognized as a nationally excelling school. [citation needed]
