Lancaster, California
Community Profile
The Antelope Valley has enjoyed unprecedented growth and prosperity in the last decade. Once home of vast herds of prong-horned antelope and acres of alfalfa, AV is now the busy center of an expanding aerospace industry and home of the space shuttle. The total population of the Antelope Valley exceeds 350,000. The Valley still offers an uncrowded and open landscape for nature lovers and adventurers of all kinds, and retains much of the charm and serenity of it natural and rural character on outlying ranches and mini-farms. Separated from Los Angeles and the Coastal cities of Southern California by the San Gabriel Mountains, the Antelope Valley is located on the southwestern rim of the Greater Mojave Desert in northern Los Angeles County's "High Desert" region.
Los Angeles is the second-largest in the United States. Often abbreviated as L.A., it is of the world's most prominent centers of culture, technology, media, business, and international trade. It is home to renowned institutions covering a broad range of professional and cultural fields, and it is one of the most important economic engines of the United States. Los Angeles also leads the world in producing popular entertainment — such as motion picture, television, video games and recorded music — which forms the base of its international fame and global status.
Special Comment:
One of the programs recently instituted at all high schools is the Senior Project as a graduation requirement. Students select an area of interest to research, find a mentor, and compile research. The hope of this project is that students will find greater success earlier in their chosen careers.
