John H. Reagan High School is a senior high school located in the Houston Heights in Houston, Texas. Reagan serves students in grades nine through twelve and is a part of the Houston Independent School District. Reagan is HISD's Magnet School of Computer Technology and offers the International Baccalaureate Programme (IB) Middle Years Program (till 10th grade) and twenty Advanced Placement (AP) courses. Students belong either to the Computer Magnet Academy, or to the Health Science Academy, Business Academy, Engineering and Design Academy and Transportation Academy. They receive specialized hands-on training to prepare them for a career in those fields. ==History== Houston Heights High School was first established for Heights residents in 1904,〔''The History of Houston Heights From Its Foundation in 1891 To Its Annexation in 1918''.

However, as was common in those days, that school also housed an elementary and middle school. When the Heights joined the City of Houston in 1918, the building at end of Heights Boulevard and 20th known today as Hamilton Middle School became the Senior High School, and the old location became a Junior High School. When the original building on Yale and 12th burned in 1924, a new location for the high school was picked in the block between Oxford and Arlington, 13th and 14th. The new school was named John H. Reagan High School and opened in 1926. The campus was designed by John Staub and William Ward Watkin, who were designers of the original campus of Rice University. Reagan was first established as an all-white high school. Overcrowding at Reagan was relieved by Waltrip High School when Waltrip opened in 1959.〔"(A Brief History of: S. P. Waltrip High School )" ((Archive )). Waltrip High School. Accessed October 22, 2008.〕 Reagan was desegregated by 1970 and its student body started to become increasingly Hispanic; by 1988 Reagan was mostly Hispanic.
