School Overview

Robert E. Lee High School, located at 411 ESE Loop 323 in Tyler, Texas, is a notable secondary institution within the Tyler Independent School District. Serving a diverse student population, the school has historically functioned as one of the district’s primary high schools, offering a comprehensive academic curriculum alongside a wide array of extracurricular activities, including athletics, fine arts, and various student organizations aimed at fostering leadership and community engagement.

It is important to note that the school underwent a significant administrative and cultural transition in recent years. In 2020, the Tyler ISD Board of Trustees voted to rename the institution **Tyler Legacy High School** to better reflect the values and inclusivity of the current student body and the broader community. While the physical address remains the same, the school now operates under the "Legacy" identity, maintaining its long-standing traditions of competitive excellence and academic rigor while moving forward with a revised institutional mission.
