About Us
Robert E. Lee Senior High School originally a $3.5 million facility, opened in
the fall of 1961 under the leadership of Mr. Leslie R. Hinds. The building was
to accommodate approximately 2200 students even though less than 2000 students
were enrolled in the fall. The high school housed four grade levels: freshman,
sophomore, junior and senior.
The new facility consisted of seven pods or sections that were designed around
a central courtyard. An interesting note is that when the school opened, there
were no doors on the classrooms, and only doorways.
