September 30, 1927 Issue

In November 1895, the first high school newspaper, a monthly publication called The Echo, made its debut. Harry McSheehy was editor-in-chief. The paper was discontinued after six issues. In 1905, the Red and Black appeared and was published until 1920. The paper was the forerunner of the school annual, The Tattler, published first in 1907. The paper was renamed The Magpie in 1920. Almost 100 years later, in 2021, LHS Magpie is now an all-digital publication thanks to the 2020-2021 staff, especially Lesley Alcala, Ethan Hopper, and Sam Dexter.
