Dear fellow Alumni:
2020 is bringing challenges to our association as we plan for this summers reunion that no one could have for seen. The threat of the COVID-19 virus is something that is now part of our daily lives and will be for some time to come. We have, as a board, looked at the issues in front of us, read recommendations from the State of New Hampshire HHS and the Center for Disease Control and come to a decision. As this is an event that needs so much planning, we have reassessed and decided to postpone our reunion until 2021. With the average age that attends these reunions and the recommendation that no one meet in groups of more than ten, this seems to be the most sensible approach. We will all have enough to focus on with our jobs, businesses and families to keep us plenty busy and before we know it, 2021 will be here!
Please look for our newsletter later this Spring/Summer. We do have positive things to share with you as our membership and want to communicate that with you. Please follow us on Facebook or our website for additional announcements and communications.
I thank you all in advance for your understanding of this decision. I wish you all well and hope that you and your families stay safe.
Regards,
Darrell A. Louis

History
Littleton High School was originally built in 1868 but was replaced by a brick building in 1925. The brick building was destroyed by fire in 1954 and was rebuilt in 1956. This is the building we can see today in its current location on School Street., with its grand columns in front and mighty cupola on its top.
Due to the climbing school population, portable classrooms were put into place on the front lawn prior to the opening of school in the fall of 1969. Though these classrooms served the purpose, a lot of people felt that they took away from the school's beautiful facade.
As time moved on. Profile Regional High School was built in nearby Bethlehem and we lost our tuition students. The curriculum was expanded at LHS in keeping with the times....and space was still a problem. Following the death of Governor Hugh J. Gallen, ground was broken to build an addition to LHS, which would be called The Hugh J. Gallen Vocational Wing... in his honor & memory. Today the vocational wing hosts a variety of vocational courses both to Littleton students and other local high schools.
In 2002, Littleton townspeople again moved to address the spacial issues and the aging accommodations of Littleton High School (LHS). With a 6 million dollar commitment from the townspeople, LHS underwent a remodeling and expansion that drastically altered its shape in ways not seen since the school was rebuilt in 1956. Graduates who walk through its hallways now will find a very different building from what they remember. The main entrance was moved from School Street to Oak Hill Avenue. A new cafeteria was added along with new classrooms and hallways.
Littleton High School is well positioned to serve its community and students into the new century and we, the members of the LHS Alumni association, are proud to still be a part of it as well.
