History

As the Hardin area grew, several school districts in the Hardin area voted to consolidate in February 1939. In March 1939, Hardin High school was established by the merger of five schools. By September of the same year, architects and district officials received approval from the Texas Department of Education to build a Hardin High School. 16 acres of land were donated Col. R. W. and Geraldine Humphreys of Liberty. Classes began in 1940. The current building housing Hardin High School was built in 1997.

In 2007, the school received a bomb threat. Liberty County sheriff deputies blocked off the whole area.

As of the 2022, the graduation rate of 98.6% exceeded the state average of 90.
