History
Brownsville High School students were in for a change when they returned
to classes from a four-day Easter holiday in 1967. Waiting for the
2,500 students was a new campus. The building, with its unusual
multiple pods, enclosed five acres of land. The new high school campus
quickly filled up, at one time accommodating over 5,000 students who
attended school in split sessions. Arnulfo L. Oliveira was the school's
first principal. The school's name was changed from Brownsville High
School to Hanna High School in honor of BISD Administrator Homer Hanna.
