Clear Lake High School is a public secondary school located in Houston, Texas, United States.
The school, which serves grades 9 through 12, is a part of the Clear Creek Independent School District. The school serves portions of Houston (including most of Clear Lake City) and Pasadena (including Clear Lake City). It previously served the cities of Seabrook, El Lago, and Taylor Lake Village, and the El Jardin del Mar portion of Pasadena, until Clear Falls High School in League City opened. Its colors are red, blue, and white. Its mascot and symbol is the Falcon.
Clear Lake High School opened in 1972 to alleviate overcrowding at what was then the district's only high school, Clear Creek High School with the first class graduating in 1973. The current campus has a ninth grade center — formerly Space Center Intermediate School — field house, and athletic fields, all across the street from the University of Houston–Clear Lake.
The ninth grade annex was first added to the Clear Lake High School campus in 1978. Later, the 9th grade center was used as Space Center Intermediate School but returned to a 9th grade center when SCIS moved to a newly built campus for the 1999-2000 school year.
For the 1986-87 school year Clear Lake High School became a National Blue Ribbon School. Clear Lake High School is currently the largest school in Texas with a Texas Education Agency (TEA) ranking of Recognized.
