History
A Ligonier public high school has been in existence since 1886. The current high school was built on the present site in Ligonier Township, near U.S. Route 30. The Alvin P. Carey Memorial Building opened in 1964. At the start of the 2010-11 school term, students from the former Laurel Valley High School attendance area attend Ligonier Valley, and at that time, the mascot was changed to the Rams, reflecting Laurel Valley's mascot. To pick a new logo for the school, students submitted sample Rams logos and others voted. However, in August 2010, Collegiate Licensing Company, a group that handles college logos stated the chosen logo was plagiarized. Even though the logo, made by student Dylon Kuhn, was precisely constructed differently, the Ligonier Valley School District refused to pay the small fee to use the logo like neighboring school Jeannette. Arguments are still disputed.
Amenities
The Alvin P. Carey building has air conditioning throughout the school. The auditorium which was added on in 1998, has a full stage, sound room, light control room, and dressing rooms. Seating over 500, it is used for many public events. The cafeteria has a courtyard that is surrounded on all sides which is used for outdoors studies and other events. The school also features a full size auxiliary gym and weight lifting room.
