Eisenhower High School is a three-year secondary school located at Fifty-Second and Gore Boulevard in the city of Lawton, Oklahoma. The initial construction contained 48 rooms, built at a cost of $1,778,000, on a sixty-acre campus. The building opened in September, 1962, with an enrollment of 700 students in grades 7-10. The next year the 11th grade was added, and the following year 12th grade was added.
