Uvalde High School is a public high school for grades 9?12 in Uvalde, Texas , in the United States. It has a current enrollment of about 1,250 students. [4] The school is part of the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District . The school is 90.4% Hispanic as of the 2022-2023 school year. [5]

History [ edit ]

The first school in Uvalde was built in 1885. It initially served all grade levels. The school was expanded in 1891, but later burned down in 1898. A new school was built in its place in 1900. The current structure was built in 1908 following an increase in enrollment. [6]

In 1949, the Batesville Independent School District began sending its students to Uvalde High School. [7]

In 1970, a large group of Hispanic students boycotted their classes after the all-white school board declined to renew a Hispanic elementary school teacher's contract. [8] The students also protested the lack of bilingual education. By the end of the year, the school board had not given in to their demands. [9]

Connection to the Robb Elementary School shooting [ edit ]

The Uvalde School shooting was a mass shooting that occurred on May 24, 2022 at Robb Elementary school . The shooting resulted in the deaths of 19 students and two teachers. The perpetrator, Salvador Ramos, was a former student of Uvalde High School. [10] He was withdrawn from the school by school officials on October 28, 2021 due to his poor attendance. [11]
