Lebanon Trail High School is public high school located in Frisco, Texas (USA) that is part of the Frisco Independent School District. The school opened in Fall 2016, with the first day of classes starting August 22, 2016.[1] The school is the district's ninth and newest high school.[2] It opened with only freshmen attending for its first academic year.

Namesake

The school is named for Lebanon, a community which existed at the site about half a century before Frisco and was located near the Preston Trail.[2] An initial decision to name the school Lebanon High school caused controversy among parents and students alike, who felt that the school's name would be too reminiscent of the Middle Eastern country of the same name; the community was allegedly in favor of a more "American-themed name."[3]
