History
editThe Ogden School District was established in 1849.
Ogden High School was built in its current location in 1937, and was one of the first high school buildings that cost over $1 million.
Ben Lomond High School was established in 1952. It was named for the Ben Lomond Peak, which Scottish immigrants named because it reminded them of the Ben Lomond Mountains in Scotland.
In 2006, the District funded the renovation of Ben Lomond High School and Ogden High School using a bond. Construction on both projects began in 2007. Ben Lomond's project finished in August 2010, while Ogden High's renovation concluded in 2012.
Both of the renovations were well received. The Ogden School District and Ben Lomond High School were recognized and awarded with the Mountain States Construction Silver Award in 2010, while Ogden High School's renovation received a preservation award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
