LBJ High School opened in 2001 with its first graduating class in 2005. Its colors are purple, black
, and gold.
On June 4, 2014, two LBJ High School students were caught on video surveillance for allegedly smearing paint and writing graffiti on school property. Graffiti placed on a school or public monument is a state jail felony in Texas if the loss is under $20,000. Some 30 students and staff spent hours trying to clean up the vandalism. No arrests were immediately made when the alleged offenders were detained by campus police.[3]
In 2014, LBJ High School fell short of minimum state standards and have been placed on the Public Education Grant list.[4]
Mascot
The mascot for LBJ High School is a wolf.
Standardized dress
Starting in the 2007–2008 school year, students were required to follow the standardized dress code provided by the district.[1]
Purple is Johnson's designated extra shirt color choice. The Texas Education Agency specified that the parents and/or guardians of students zoned to a school with uniforms may apply for a waiver to opt out of the uniform policy so their children do not have to wear the uniform; parents must specify "bona fide" reasons, such as religious reasons or philosophical objections.[5]
