Little Elm High School is a public high school in Little Elm, Texas, United States and classified as a 6A school by the University Interscholastic League (UIL). It is part of the Little Elm Independent School District located in east central Denton County.
Little Elm High School was established as a school around the late 60s to early 70s with students prior being bussed to Denton and Frisco high schools. The school was initially located on Lobo Lane near the central area of Little Elm. With rapid growth in the 90s and 2000s, the school district would expand what was known as the "old Little Elm High School" in 1995, and later open a new campus on Walker Lane in 2004 to accommodate growth, with the previous building later becoming Lakeside Middle School, and now is the Administration Building for Little Elm ISD.

On Friday, November 19, 2021, a walkout protest was held in response to a student claiming that she was sexually harassed by another student on a bus but was herself disciplined upon reporting the incident. Police were called to the scene when the students became disruptive and began making threats. In response to the increased disruption, officers used pepper spray and tasers on some students; four students were arrested for assaulting the police officers. The school district proceeded to host a "listening session" with parents and students to hear their concerns. [8] [9]
