Hillsborough High School is the oldest high school in Hillsborough County, Florida. It is one of three county schools with an International Baccalaureate program.
Hillsborough High School was established in 1885 on Franklin St., in a very small building. General class size was 19 students with one teacher. After several relocations, Hillsborough moved to its current location (5000 North Central Avenue) in 1927. Hillsborough's exterior is known to be one of the most beautiful and historic in the Seminole Heights region of Tampa, Florida. Its capacity is over 2,000 students.[citation needed]
[edit] History and Traditions
Hillsborough High School, is one of the South's oldest high schools and the oldest high school in the county, is full of history, tradition, and pride. While its existence as a school probably dates closer to 1880, a room over a Franklin Street livery stable in 1885 is recognized as the first location of the school. After several moves, the present building was opened in 1927. The school "strives" to provide a positive educational environment and to meet and respect the needs of its students, by providing a rich liberal arts education, offering namely; college prep, vocational, and international baccalaureate programs. Its football team is ranked one of the best in the state. Last year recruiting speedsters from various middle schools; including IB-freshman QB/WR utility man Ravi Kanthi from Williams Middle, Sophomore CB/WR Damarcuss Russel from Memorial Middle, Freshman RB Tony Freeman Memorial Midlle, and Sophomore CB Carlos Flores. HIllsborough High School not only leads in sports- they are ranked very high on Newsweek Poll for the best high school in the country.
Beginning with the first teacher (who also served as principal) and the first graduating class of four students in 1885, the students, faculty and administrators of Hillsborough High School have established a framework of history, tradition, spirit, and pride. One of the oldest traditions is the wearing of red and black, the school's colors, every Friday to show spirit and unity. Hillsborough has many illustrious alumni who have served as state attorneys, senators, judges, state representatives, mayors, professional athletes, and in many other notable professions.
Hillsborough produced the first high school newspaper in Florida in 1889, The Red & Black[1], and the first yearbook in Florida, "The Hillsborean", in 1911. In 1913 and 1914, Hillsborough's basketball and baseball teams defeated teams from the University of Florida and Southern College. In 1929, Hillsborough won the high school national football championship.
The alma mater, "The Red and Black" was written in 1923. In 1931, Hillsborough High became the first home of the University of Tampa, established by Frederic Spaulding in 1931 as Tampa Junior College. In 1933, UT moved to its current home in the old Tampa Bay Hotel, now named Plant Hall. Students purchased the Tower Clock in 1949 to honor Hillsborough's casualties in World War II. The names of Hillsborough students who were killed were placed on a plaque under the tower. The Terrier Creed was written in 1954; it received much publicity as the only one of its kind in the South. The bronze terrier that guards the trophy case was originally placed in the courtyard. The sacred "H" on the patio was dedicated in 1964 in honor of Mr. Hamilton, an assistant principal. Various groups provided the stained glass windows in the auditorium in 1963. [2]
Over the years, Hillsborough High School, garnered some interesting nick names. such as "Harvard on the Hill" which was due in part to the fact that Hillsborough High School was built on the highest geographical elevation in Hillsborough County, had graduated many illustrious people, and to the fact that Hillsborough High emulated much of Harvard's traditions with regards to its alma mater and school color scheme a crimson shade of red and black, not to mention the big letter "H". Historically, the colors red and black represent heart and soul. And later, Hillsborough High also picked up the nick name "Peyton Place," probably sometime in the late 1960s or early 70's, because the opening scene of the tower in the popular Peyton Place (TV series) soap opera somehow reminded some individuals of Hillsborough High's clock tower, and also because as one teacher put it; the reason she referred to Hillsborough High as "Peyton Place" was; "...it seemed there was always some sort of soap opera going on at the school."
On Friday, August 31, 2007, the Hillsborough High School football team celebrated its 100th anniversary season opener with a 43-20 win over Jefferson High School at Chelo Huerta Field. [3] The Hillsborough High football team began competing interscholastically in 1907. Football was the first competitive high school sport played in Florida. The five schools in the initial football league were Duval (Jacksonville), Hillsboro (Tampa), Ocala, Orlando and Summerlin Institute (Bartow). Of those five schools, only Hillsboro - now spelled Hillsborough - still exists today. The FHSAA -Florida High School Athletic Association was not formed until 1920.[4]
[edit] Renovations and Expansions
In the mid 1970s, Hillsborough High went through a massive renovation. The school's students, faculty and staff were forced to temporarily move back into the old Hillsborough High School building, built in 1917, located a few miles away in Tampa Heights (Tampa), FL, then the Home of George Washington Jr. High School[5]. Hillsborough High students were forced into triple session, while the two schools shared the old HHS building, until the renovations of the HHS were completed in 1978.
In 1979, HHS students launched a successful fundraising campaign to pay for the chimes in the HHS clock tower. In 1980, a plaque was donated by the class of 1980, and mounted over the doorway leading to the inner courtyard from the trophy case area of the main building dedicated to the classes of the 1980s and "the Decade of New Ideas." During the early 1980s, HHS's student population swelled to over 3,000 students, spanning two campuses, referred to as North and South Campuses. HHS's South Campus included all of the buildings which now comprise Memorial Middle School [6], adjacent to HHS on its south side.
In the mid 1980s, the Alumni Building, commonly referred to as the 400 Hall, was added to the school. In around 1995, another addition was made, the 500 Building/English Hall, in which most 10th grade homerooms and English classes are housed.
On May 3, 2008, HHS completed renovations to restore the high school to its pre-1960s luster, when it reopened its newly named gymnasium. In 2005, many classes were forced into portable classrooms during the renovation. The major improvements to HHS were divided between maintenance and restoration, and construction of a new gymnasium.
Previously, Hillsborough High's gym had been famously and affectionately known to Hillsborough High students and alums as the "Big Red Barn", more commonly "The Barn" probably due in part to its architectural design: its steep "skylighted" roof and red brick facade cause the gym to resemble a barn from a distance. "The Barn" was known for being a hostile environment for Terrier opponents to compete in, for the HHS student body seldom stood for anything short of winning. "The Barn" was one of the harshest gyms in the county to play in, as there was no air conditioning in it for many years. That, coupled with the loud fans and the many talented Terrier teams opposing schools had to face made "the Barn" a very difficult place to come out of with a win, much to the delight of generations of Hillsborough fans.
On May 3, 2008, a ceremony was held in Hillsborough High's newly remodeled gym to dedicate the gym, naming it; the Don Williams Athletic Center, in honor of former HHS boys basketball coach Don Williams, who led the Terriers to a 2A state championship in 1959. Coach Williams went on to become the first University of South Florida men's basketball coach in 1970-71. Coach Williams died in February of 2008.[7]
