Gulf High School (Florida)
Gulf High School is a four-year public high school in New Port Richey, Florida. It is part of the Pasco County School System in Pasco County, Florida. It is the first high school in western Pasco County and the second school in Pasco County to offer the International Baccalaureate Program, the other being Land O' Lakes High School. Gulf High School is so named because it was originally located less than one mile from the Gulf of Mexico.
==History==
Gulf High School opened on September 18, 1922, with an initial enrollment of 39 students and a faculty consisting of three teachers.〔New Port Richey Press, Sept. 21, 1922〕 There were no seniors during the first school year; the first graduation took place on April 29, 1924, with eleven seniors.〔New Port Richey Press, May 2, 1924〕 Although Gulf High School remained the only high school in western Pasco County for over fifty years, enrollment remained small through the 1950s and local residents feared the state might close the school. In the 1920s and 1930s the sports teams were nicknamed the "Cooties,"〔New Port Richey Press, Feb. 21, 1936〕 from a shortened name for the Pithlachascotee River, on which the school was situated. In 1931 a dispute between the school trustees and the county school board over the selection of a principal was appealed to the Florida Supreme Court.〔New Port Richey Press, Oct. 2, 1931〕 In 1938 football was revived after an absence of several years and in November of that year the ''Tampa Tribune'' said that the team was the "losingest team in the country,"〔Tampa Morning Tribune, Nov. 5, 1938〕 as it had been outscored by 442-0 thus far in the season. But the 1941-42 football team had a 9-1 record and won the Gulf Coast Conference championship.〔Gulf High School 1942 yearbook〕 In 1961 Gulf High School moved into a new building,〔New Port Richey Press, Sept. 7, 1961〕 and in 1977 it moved to its third and current location at 5355 School Rd., New Port Richey FL 34652.〔Gulf High School 1978 yearbook〕 The building which now houses Gulf High school opened as Gulf Junior High School (now Gulf Middle School) in 1971; in 1977 the two schools switched buildings. Schools in Pasco County were racially integrated in the 1960s, and the first black students to attend Gulf High School were enrolled at the start of the 1966-67 school year.〔Gulf High School 1967 yearbook〕 In April 2007, the International Baccalaureate Organization approved a diploma program for Gulf High School.〔http://sptimes.com/2007/04/26/Pasco/Gulf_High_earns_IB_st.shtml〕 In 2009 Gulf High School's first IB Senior class graduated. In 2010 the wrestling team won the Class A state championship.
