It was established from the merger of Beaumont High School, the high school for white students, and Charlton-Pollard High School, the high school for black students. The merger happened after Joe J. Fisher, a U.S. federal district court judge, ordered Beaumont ISD to desegregate speedily.Rienstra, Ellen Walker and Judith Walker Linsley (Beaumont Chamber of Commerce).
