Beaumont Charlton-Pollard High School
Beaumont Charlton-Pollard High School was a senior high school in Beaumont, Texas, a part of the Beaumont Independent School District, that operated from 1975 to 1986. The mascot was the cougar and its school colors were green and gold.[1]
It was established from the merger of Beaumont High School, the high school for white students, and Charlton-Pollard High School, the high school for black students. The merger happened after Joe J. Fisher, a U.S. federal district court judge, ordered Beaumont ISD to speedily desegregate.[2] In 1986 the school consolidated with French High School to form Beaumont Central High School.[1]
