History
As the Hardin area grew, several school districts in the Hardin area voted to consolidate in February 1939.[ 10] In March 1939, Hardin High school was established by the merger of five schools.[ 11] By September of the same year, architects and district officials received approval from the Texas Department of Education to build a Hardin High School.[ 12] 16 acres of land were donated Col. R. W. and Geraldine Humphreys of Liberty. Classes began in 1940. The current building housing Hardin High School was built in 1997.[ 13] [ 14]
In 2007, the school received a bomb threat. Liberty County sheriff deputies blocked off the whole area.[ 15]
