Alief Elsik High School
Alief Elsik High School is a high school in the Alief region of Houston, Texas, United States.
Elsik is divided into two campuses: the main campus (12601 High Star in Houston, zip code 77072), and the Alief Elsik Ninth Grade Center (located at 6767 South Dairy Ashford, city of Houston, 77072), which serves ninth graders. Both campuses, which are in the Alief Independent School District, serve grades 9 through 12. The ninth grade campus is located in the International District although the main high school building is outside of it.
In the 2021–2022 school year, Elsik received a score of 68 out of 100 from the Texas Education Agency.
Elsik opened in 1975 on the same campus as Hastings High School, as what is now known as Hastings South. The first year Elsik only enrolled freshmen, and added classes every year thereafter, until it had all four grades, with the first freshman class from 1975–76 graduating in 1979. While the two schools were divided by a large courtyard and bus run, there was frequent contact with students from the other campus, which made for interesting times during sporting events between the two schools. Certain classes were shared by both Hastings and Elsik, such as machine shop, art, and Accelerated Learning or "Honor Roll" classes.
A separate school building partially opened in January, 1982 one block away from Hastings. The original portions were known at the time as the North House and the C Building. The remainder of the building, known as the South House, opened in January, 1983. During the construction of the South House, temporary walls existed in the South Cafeteria and classroom wing, dividing the completed portion of the building from that portion still under construction. Even after the new building was complete, certain classes and sporting facilities were shared between the two schools.
In the late 1980s, a separate building was built bridging the two schools on land formerly used for physical education. This new building was almost like a separate school and included its own cafeteria. It mainly filled the need for shared classes in one centralized, easily accessible location for students. It is known as the Annex. Elsik High School is one of the largest high schools in the state.
For the 2017–2018 school year, the school received a score of 71 out of 100 from the Texas Education Agency. It received a score of 79 and a C grade in 2018–2019. The school was not rated in 2019–2020 and 2020–2021. It received a score of 68 in 2021–2022. The school was not rated in 2022–2023.
In the 2022–2023 school year, there were 4,118 students. 0.8% were American Indian/Alaska Native, 8.6% were Asian, 24.7% were Black, 62.7% were Hispanic, 0.1% were Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, 2.7% were White, and 0.4% were two or more races. 80.8% of students were eligible for free or reduced price lunch.
