Des Lacs-Burlington High School (DLBHS) is a public high school in Des Lacs, North Dakota that serves students in Burlington as well as Des Lacs. It is part of the United Public School District 7 and was formed from a merger between both of the towns school districts in the late 1960s. Des Lacs-Burlington High School students attend grades K-6 at Burlington-Des Lacs Elementary School in Burlington, and grades 7–12 at DLBHS.[3]

History

The school was formed by a merger of Des Lacs and Burlington High Schools in 1965. Originally, students in grades 7 and 8 attended DLBHS; this changed in 2000 with the addition of a junior high wing at BDLE. In 2017 an education referendum approved funding for the construction of a junior high school wing at DLBHS.[4][5] The expansion included a new gymnasium and cafeteria, and was in use by April 2019.[6] The former junior high wing at BDLE was converted into a Kindergarten and office space wing.
