Connally High School

Connally Independent School District is a public school district with its headquarters in Lacy Lakeview, Texas (USA).[1][2]

In addition to Connally ISD includes most of the city of Lacy-Lakeview, a small portion of north Waco, parts of Bellmead,[3] and the communities of Elm Mott and Chalk Bluff.[4]

History

The district was formed in 1950–51 by the merger of the Lakeview and Elm Mott school districts.[5] The name comes from the former James Connally Air Force Base in the district (now the flagship campus of the Texas State Technical College System) and carries over to the school mascot, the Cadet.[6]

After the resumption of classes in fall 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic, two teachers at the junior high school died of COVID-19 by September 1, 2021; the district canceled classes for two days[7] and reopened after Labor Day with a mask mandate, one of several smaller school districts to join urban districts in requiring masks.[6]
