Flower Mound High School (FMHS) is part of Lewisville Independent School District and located in Flower Mound, Texas. The school rests on of land that were purchased in 1993. FMHS was the second high school built in Flower Mound, after Edward S. Marcus High School. With the expansion of Flower Mound in the 1980s and 1990s (from 1980 to 2000, the town grew from 4,402 to 50,702 residents), a second high school was built to accommodate the growth.〔''1980 Census of Population and Housing''. U.S. Census Bureau. Retrieved August 6, 2008.〕〔''Census 2000''. U.S. Census Bureau. Retrieved August 6, 2008.〕 Flower Mound High School has been called one of the top ten "best public high schools" in the Dallas area〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Best Public High Schools 2006 )〕 and consistently receives an "Exemplary" (highest) rating from the Texas Education Agency.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2011 School Accountability Ratings )〕 ==History== On March 6, 1995, Lewisville ISD broke ground on the first of two $32 million high schools. Intended to relieve pressure off of Marcus and Lewisville High Schools, plans were set for a campus, including two gymnasiums, a cafetorium, an auditorium, a band hall, a football field, tennis courts, and three parking lots. To accommodate additional students, an unplanned wing containing 45 additional classrooms was completed in time for the 2000–2001 school year.〔 Two of the original planned parking lots, as well as an unplanned second cafeteria, were not completed until after the school opened.〔〔 108 staff members, led by principal Norman Reuther, taught the first student body of 986 freshman and sophomores.〔 The school was recognized as exemplary in the charter year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Academic Excellence Indicator System )〕 In the school's second year, varsity sports were introduced and the student body grew to include grades nine through eleven.〔 In 2000, Kansas State University threatened legal action against FMHS for an alleged copyright violation on the Jaguar logo. Rather than pay a licensing fee to KSU, as some schools in Texas were currently doing, principal Reuther ordered a re-design of the logo, to avoid the 8% merchandise commission. In August 2001, Reuther welcomed the school's first senior class; the student body grew to over 2,400 students. In 2013, the school began a project to build a new campus that would be for 9th graders only. The class of 2018 is the first class to use the new freshman center. Principal Norman Reuther left FMHS at the end of the 2003 school year; assistant principal Jack Clark subsequently took over the position of principal. Under his leadership the school's enrollment continued to grow (''see graph, right''). In Spring 2007, Clark and his wife and head counselor, Donna, announced their retirement. Paul Moon was selected to head the school.〔 In January 2008, Moon announced that FMHS would undergo an expansion adding a third gymnasium and a second band room, to be completed in May 2009.〔 〕 In Spring 2008, LISD began random drug testing of all high school students in extracurricular and co-curricular groups; 75 weekly random students from FMHS were tested that Spring, and 48 students per week were tested for the 2008–09 school year. In May 2011, it was publicly announced that Paul Moon would retire and pass the leadership to Sonya Lail. 2007 FMHS graduates earned over ten million dollars in scholarships, exceeding $14,000 per person. The 2008 graduating class accumulated approximately $15,500,000 in scholarship money, exceeding an average of $22,000 per graduate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Flower Mound High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
