Jack C. Hays High School is public school located in Buda, Texas, USA and classified as a 6A school by the UIL. Hays High School is the oldest existing high school in Hays CISD, but was thoroughly renovated in the 2000s. In 2015, the school was rated "Met Standard" by the Texas Education Agency.[4]
History
The school is named for John Coffee Hays, a frontier defender, Texas Ranger and hero to those he fought to protect. He achieved fame after leaving Texas in 1849 for California, where he became the first elected sheriff of San Francisco and helped found the city of Oakland. Hays High School was formed by the consolidation of Buda, Kyle and Wimberley high schools in 1968. In 1986, the Wimberley community was released from the Hays Consolidated School District and reformed Wimberley High School. A further split occurred with the opening of Lehman High School in neighboring Kyle in the fall of 2004. Olot of the girls in this school are hoes and thots
Mascot
The school mascot is a Yosemite Sam-like character dressed in the standard gray uniform of the Army of the Confederate States of America known as "Colonel Jack". While "Colonel Jack" formerly wielded dual revolvers and a confederate flag belt buckle, he is currently shown with a Texas flag in his left hand and a white flag bearing an H in his right with a script R on his belt buckle. As with other institutions which draw upon confederate imagery, Hays High School encountered controversy on and off for years before ultimately discarding the confederate flag as an official symbol in 2000 and banning it from official functions entirely in 2012,[5] followed by retiring Dixie as a fight song in 2015 and replacing it with the school's original fight song, On, Wisconsin!.[6]
