'''Ronald Reagan High School''' is a Texas [[University Interscholastic League|UIL]] Division 5A high school of the [[North East Independent School District]] located in [[San Antonio, Texas]]. The school's mascot is the Rattler. The school is located in the Stone Oak neighborhood of Northern San Antonio.


In 2013 Reagan was ranked fifth on [[Children at Risk]]'s ranking of the top 10 high schools in [[Greater San Antonio]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://childrenatrisk.org/research/school-rankings/san-antonio/ |title=San Antonio Rankings and Data Files |publisher=Children At Risk |date=2013-08-13 |access-date=2013-10-02 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131007205113/http://childrenatrisk.org/research/school-rankings/san-antonio/ |archive-date=2013-10-07 }}</ref>

==History==
Rattlers at the next level:
San Antonio, like many [[Sun Belt]] cities, experienced explosive growth in its suburbs beginning in the early 1990s. This growth was particularly evident in affluent areas formed by people moving to the city. In Stone Oak and Sonterra north of [[Texas State Highway Loop 1604|Route 1604]] and between the Blanco Road and US-281 corridors, this rapid growth caused severe overcrowding at nearby [[Winston Churchill High School (San Antonio)|Winston Churchill High School]]. At the time Churchill was the farthest-north school in the North East Independent School District, and its student population grew to 3,400 at a school designed for not more than 2,500. The district recognized this problem, and included an allocation to build a new high school in the area as a part of its 1997 bond issue. The property for the school was purchased from descendants of rancher William Classen prior to passage of the bond issue.

After voters approved the bond issue, construction began on the {{convert|84|acre|m2|adj=on}} campus. Spaw Glass was the general contractor for the project. The name "Ronald Reagan" was chosen by future students of the school (those currently in attendance at other North East schools) from a list selected by the district's Board of Trustees. A spirit committee selected the mascot "Rattlers" from three finalists and chose green, silver, and black as the school colors.


The opening of [[Lady Bird Johnson High School]] in 2008 relieved overcrowding at Reagan as San Antonio's population continued booming in the early part of the 2000s.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20060206144838/http://www.neisd.net/maps/campus/boundaries/maps02-03/reaganhs.pdf Reagan High School Map] ([http://web.archive.org/web/20060206144838/http://www.neisd.net/maps/campus/boundaries/maps02-03/reaganhs.pdf Archive]).

In 2013 Reagan was ranked fifth on Children at Risk's ranking of the top 10 high schools in Greater San Antonio.[5]

History

[edit]

San Antonio, like many Sun Belt cities, experienced explosive growth in its suburbs beginning in the early 1990s. This growth was particularly evident in affluent areas formed by people moving to the city. In Stone Oak and Sonterra north of Route 1604 and between the Blanco Road and US-281 corridors, this rapid growth caused severe overcrowding at nearby Winston Churchill High School. At the time Churchill was the farthest-north school in the North East Independent School District, and its student population grew to 3,400 at a school designed for not more than 2,500. The district recognized this problem, and included an allocation to build a new high school in the area as a part of its 1997 bond issue. The property for the school was purchased from descendants of rancher William Classen prior to passage of the bond issue.

After voters approved the bond issue, construction began on the 84-acre (340,000 m2) campus. Spaw Glass was the general contractor for the project. The name "Ronald Reagan" was chosen by future students of the school (those currently in attendance at other North East schools) from a list selected by the district's Board of Trustees. A spirit committee selected the mascot "Rattlers" from three finalists and chose green, silver, and black as the school colors.

The opening of Lady Bird Johnson High School in 2008 relieved overcrowding at Reagan as San Antonio's population continued booming in the early part of the 2000s.[6][7]
