History
[edit]As the Hardin area grew, several school districts in the Hardin area voted to consolidate in February 1939.[10] In March 1939, Hardin High school was established by the merger of five schools.[11] By September of the same year, architects and district officials received approval from the Texas Department of Education to build a Hardin High School.[12] 16 acres of land were donated Col. R. W. and Geraldine Humphreys of Liberty. Classes began in 1940. The current building housing Hardin High School was built in 1997.[13][14]
In 2007, the school received a bomb threat. Liberty County sheriff deputies blocked off the whole area.[15]
As of the 2022, the graduation rate of 98.6% exceeded the state average of 90.[16]
