Haltom High School is a grade 9–12 high school located in Haltom City, Texas.[3]
The Haltom mascot is the Buffalo, and school colors are black, orange, and white.[3] For the biennium 2020-2022, the Texas UIL classified the school as 6A, and assigned the school's sports teams to District 3 (6A-3).[2]
Originally known as Birdville Academy when it opened in 1858, Haltom High School was named Birdville High School when Birdville ISD was incorporated in 1926.[4] It was the only high school in the district until Richland High School opened in the fall of 1961.[5][6] The original high school was located on a triangular piece of property atop Birdville Hill, where the Birdville ISD district offices, Birdville Stadium, and Birdville Auditorium are still located.[7][8][9]
A bond election in May 1986 authorized the district to purchase land and construct a new Haltom High School.[4] The new school was built on Haltom Road, approximately one-half mile north of Interstate 820.[10] The new campus opened for classes in the fall of 1989. The old Haltom High School was renovated, and became Shannon Alternative High School.[11]
An almost 400,000 square foot renovation and expansion of the Haltom Road campus was completed in 2010, adding a new wing and expanding the main building. Additional buildings were added that house science labs, classrooms, administration areas, and band and orchestra halls.[12][13][14]
