United Middle School - History

History

In 1963, what is now known as United Middle School, opened as United High School (Texas) just as the U.I.S.D was forming. As the population grew, a new campus was needed, and so a new United High School (Texas) campus was built and this one became known as the 8th Grade Campus for U.I.S.D. For ten years, from 1984-1994, nearly all students that were in the 8th grade came to this campus. At the beginning of the 1994-95 school year, there was remodeling done that included adding on to the band hall, and adding a brand new cafeteria on the southeastern side of the second floor facing Del Mar Blvd.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history is always the same the product is always different and the history interests more than the product. More, that is, more. Yes. But if the product was not different the history which is the same would not be more interesting.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
