La Marque High School is a public high school in La Marque, Texas, United States in the Houston Metropolitan Area. The school, which serves grades 9 through 12, is currently a part of the Texas City Independent School District; prior to July 1, 2016, the school district was a part of the La Marque Independent School District.[1] After TCISD annexed LMISD, the school remained open, and its athletic teams continued to be separate from those of Texas City High School.[2]
The school serves sections of La Marque, Tiki Island, and portions of Texas City. It has a total enrollment of 1400.
In February 2012, La Marque was reclassified as a University Interscholastic League 3A school, down from the 4A level.[3]
Dress code
As of July 1, 2016 La Marque High has no standardized dress policy since it now follows the TCISD school dress policy.[4]
During the late 2000s through the closure of LMISD, the school had a dress code in which students were permitted to wear solid-colored or striped golf shirts that do not have the colors red and black. Trousers may be navy, khaki, or denim.[5]
