Mark ultimately negotiated a unique arrangement with Golden Gate University to house the school on the fifth and sixth floors of the university's downtown complex. The university had unoccupied classroom space during the day and plans to start a school of education in the near future. The downtown location itself has proved advantageous to the school. Part of the school's mission is to attract as diverse a group of students as possible. The downtown location was selected because it allows students from all parts of the city, and even outside the city, to take public transportation to school each morning.
Many parents work downtown and they can commute with their children.
At lunch time, students are restricted to a two-block area. For athletics, LHS has partnered with the city's YMCA system to provide recreational facilities for the afternoons.
