James Logan High School (also known as JLHSorLogan) is a public high school located in Union City, California. It is part of the New Haven Unified School District in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Awards

[edit]

In 1994 and 1998, Logan was recognized as a California Distinguished School by the California Department of Education.[2] Logan was recognized in 1983 and 1987 as a Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education.[3]

History

[edit]

James Logan High School was named after pioneer James Logan, who came to Alvarado (former settlement, now part of Union City[4]) from Derry, Ireland in 1885. After World War II, the growth of Union City was so tremendous, a new high school was built to serve that district. James Logan served on the Washington Union High School Board of Trustees for many years and had used his own farming equipment to condition the sports field at the new school, and the school was aptly named after his service and commitment to local education.[5]
