"Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them." - Claudia Taylor Johnson
Claudia Taylor "Lady Bird" Johnson High School opened on August 28, 2008 for its inaugural year to address the growth and expansion in the north eastern communities of San Antonio, Texas. The school split from Ronald Reagan High School, its neighboring school in the North East Independent School District. The school sits high on top of one of the tallest hills in Bexar County, and overlooks all of San Antonio.
The school mascot is the Jaguar, the school flower is the bluebonnet. In 2008 during the first year, the community planted bluebonnets and wildflowers around the campus, which bloom each year in honor of Lady Bird.
There is also a Johnson High School in Austin - named after Lady Bird's husband Lyndon - more widely known as "LBJ High School" built in 1975, that is also the "Jaguars".

Famous quotes containing the word facts:
“The construction of life is at present in the power of facts far more than convictions.”

“Still, it will sometimes strike a scientific man that the philosophers have been less intent on finding out what the facts are, than on inquiring what belief is most in harmony with their system.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
“Experiences in order to be educative must lead out into an expanding world of subject matter, a subject matter of facts or information and of ideas. This condition is satisfied only as the educator views teaching and learning as a continuous process of reconstruction of experience.”
