Claudia Taylor "Lady Bird" Johnson High School is a Texas high school in the North East Independent School District named after U.S. First Lady Lady Bird Johnson. The school is located in the Stone Oak and Encino Park neighborhoods of Far North Central San Antonio.
It serves a portion of Timberwood Park.
Claudia Taylor "Lady Bird" Johnson High School opened on August 28, 2008 for its inaugural year to address the growth and expansion in the north eastern communities of San Antonio, Texas.
The school relieved Ronald Reagan High School, another school in the North East Independent School District.
The school sits high on top of one of the tallest hills in Bexar County, and overlooks some of San Antonio. The school mascot is the jaguar and the school flower is the bluebonnet. In 2008 during the first year, the community planted bluebonnets and wildflowers around the campus.
60 General Instruction classrooms, 20 Science classrooms (14 full labs, 2 modified labs, 4 classrooms), 19 Career and Technology classrooms, 16 Special Education classrooms, 3 Art classrooms, 3 JROTC classrooms and a separate JROTC Rifle Range and Quadrangle, 2 air-conditioned gymnasiums with complete support areas for Athletics, Separate classrooms/areas for Band, Choir, Orchestra, Computer Science, Dance/Pep/Cheer, Photojournalism, Theatre Arts, and Speech, Auditorium (seating approximately 750 students), Cafeteria (seating approximately 750 students), Courtyard with Amphitheatre, Library/Media Center, Separate Field/Practice Areas for Band, Tennis, Football, Baseball, Softball, and Soccer, Approximately 1,000 parking spaces.
Johnson uses a traditional U.S. school calendar, with classes beginning the last Monday of August and ending in late May or early June. Students are given several holidays throughout the year (all federal holidays and one local holiday), in addition to two weeks off in December and January for holiday break and one week off in spring for spring break. Beginning with the 2010-2011 school year, the school, along with the district, has replaced the high school A/B block schedule with a seven-period day. The move to a seven-period day had been discussed by the district for several years as a cost-cutting measure. Many other districts similar in size to NEISD had previously made the change successfully. The district had previously maintained the block schedule because of the wide appeal to high school students and their families, but was no longer able to afford to do so.
