On Saturday, June 5, 2010, a large portion of Lake High School was destroyed by an EF4 tornado, which killed seven in the area around Millbury.[2] [3] The tornado threw a bus onto the tennis courts and tore off the back end of the school and also hit the Lake Township police station. Graduation was to be held on Sunday, June 6 at the school. The building was described as "completely destroyed" and "unsalvageable". One of those killed was the father of the 2010 valedictorian.[4] The students were educated for two years at Owens Community College while the new building was constructed. Construction of the new building was completed on July 13, 2012.[5]
