These are some of the trophies that Lafayette has won throughout the years. These include basketball and football trophies as well as academics and equestrian trophies. These trophies can be found throughout the halls, mainly by the front office and the gym foyer. The L in the photo was the center of the old gym, it is now the library. The L was cut out when the new gym was built. There are also banners hanging inside the gym of some of the great victories that Lafayette high school has had going back since the 1940s.
