History

Students from the community of Damon attend Needville High since Damon [Independent School District] did not have a high school. Damon ISD signed a contract with Needville ISD in 1949 so Damon ISD residents could go to school at Needville High.
In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.
In 2014, the school suspended a high school student for refusing to stand for the pledge of allegiance. After media attention, the suspension was eventually lifted due to unconstitutionality.
In 2018 the school threatened to suspend students for participating in protests or demonstrations against gun violence in schools, leading constitutional law experts to call the policy a violation of students' First Amendment rights.
