Beaumont Charlton-Pollard High School
School in Beaumont, Texas, United States
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beaumont Charlton-Pollard High School was a senior high school in Beaumont, Texas, a part of the Beaumont Independent School District, that operated from 1975 to 1986. The mascot was the cougar; its school colors were green and gold.[1]
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.[2] In 1986, the school consolidated with French High School to form Beaumont Central High School.[1]
