Garland High School

[9] As of 2014[update], certain agricultural and athletic programs are held off-campus since there is insufficient space to house them.

This program, following standard IB policies, requires a schedule of six academic subjects both years (English, history, language, math, science, and the additional sixth subject) as well as a Theory of Knowledge class junior year.

Graduates of the School of Performing Arts receive the Performing Arts Endorsement, sequence of courses designed for the artistically gifted/talented student and offers the opportunity to concentrate on the Performing Arts and gain proficiency in chosen areas of concentration during the high school years, much as a Music or Theatre Major does in college.

Upon completion of the prescribed course of study, a Performing Arts Endorsement (PAE) shall be awarded to the student.

In addition to football, Garland High School offers baseball, basketball, cross country, Dashing Debs (also known as the Drill Team), golf, gymnastics, marching band, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track, and volleyball.

Garland High School began classes in the 1902–1903 academic year. Operating in the old Garland College building on the west side of 9th Street between Avenues A & B, the faculty offered primary, intermediate, high school and college-level instruction. Civic convocations were held in the auditorium, which accommodated crowds like the one shown here ca. 1912. [ 8 ]
