Allen High School is a public, co-educational secondary school in Allen, Texas (United States). It is the only high school in the Allen Independent School District.

Allen High School serves most of the city of Allen. Until fall 2006, when Lovejoy High School opened, Allen High School served high school students in the Lovejoy Independent School District, which includes the city of Lucas, most of Fairview, and a small portion of Plano.[3]

History

The first Allen High School, built in 1910 at the corner of Belmont and Cedar, was a two-story brick building housing six classrooms and an auditorium, and saw the first graduating class of eight students in 1914.

The second Allen High School was established in 1959 on land donated by Mr. Harris Brown on the corner of Jupiter and Main Streets.[4]

August 1999 saw the opening of Allen High School “2000”, a new facility (at the corner of Greenville and Rivercrest) which opened to 2,200 students in grades 10 through 12. The former high school was converted into the Becky Lowery Freshman Center, named in honor of a former middle school teacher and school counselor. It now serves grade 9 students, and had an enrollment of 1,634 in 2015–16.[5] The final expansion of the school was completed in 2011.{{clarify|reason=expansion of Allen or Lowery?|date=February 2016}} The expansion included a new 1,500 seat performing arts center, an expansion of band hall space and a Career and Technology Education center featuring a student-managed restaurant open to the public, a student-managed apparel store with student-designed items, multiple new Mac labs, Mac-equipped rooms for the photojournalism, yearbook, commercial photography, audiovisual, radio, and newspaper classes as well as learning-classrooms for the medical education programs.

Football

The Allen Eagle football program has become one of the top football programs in Texas over the past decade, with playoff berths in every season since 2001, and a district title every season since 2006 [7] In 2014, Allen became the fourth high school in state history to win the state championship 3 years in a row while being the first to do so in the state's largest classification.[8]

2003 was the first season for Allen to make it to the State semi-finals, losing to Southlake Carroll.

In 2006 the varsity football team finished its season as the District 9-5A Champions by beating Plano East in the last game of the regular season, 22–17. Its only loss was to Garland in the season opener. In the playoffs the Allen Eagles beat Rowlett, Mesquite, Round Rock, and Spring Westfield, and made it to the state semifinals where they lost to Southlake Carroll. The team's regular season record was 9–1 with an overall record of 13–2.

The Eagles had a perfect (10–0) regular season in 2007, followed by a first-round playoff loss to Rowlett to end the season.

After finishing the 2008 regular season with a record of 9–1, the Eagles beat South Grand Prairie, Coppell, Odessa Permian, Euless Trinity, Round Rock Stony Point, and Fort Bend Hightower in the state championship to earn their first-ever state title, making them Texas' Class 5A Div I State Champions. Upon winning the championship, the Allen Eagles were ranked #2 in the nation by both ESPN Rise and Yahoo! Rivals High School rankings and they were ranked #5 by MaxPreps poll.{{Citation needed|date=April 2011}}

In the 2011 season, the Eagles went undefeated in the regular season with a perfect record (10–0), won the first-round playoff game against Keller Central but lost to Euless Trinity for the second year in a row.

The 2012 season marked the beginning of a record-setting win streak for the Eagles. Allen went 15–1 on the season, only losing to Coppell early in the season.

Allen won the Class 5A Division I football state championship game 35–21 against Houston Lamar, at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, on December 22, 2012.

Allen won the Class 5A Division I football state championship game 63–28 against Pearland High School at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, on December 21, 2013.

Allen won the Class 6A Division I football state championship game 47–16 against Cypress Ranch High School at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, on December 20, 2014.

Allen went 10–0 in the 2015 regular season but lost in the Division I State semi-final to Westlake High School (Texas),[9] snapping a program-best 57-game winning streak, the 2nd longest ever in the state of Texas (the longest being 68 games, set by Celina High School.)

Allen went 10–0 in the 2016 regular season but lost the Division I semi-final to The Woodlands High School.

Allen won the Class 6A Division I football championship game 35-33 against Lake Travis High School at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, on December 23, 2017.

Allen was named national champs by High School Football America after the 2012,[10] 2013 [11] and 2014 seasons.[12]

New stadium

Due to the program's popularity and student population, the school was authorized, via an approved April 2009 referendum, to build an 18,000 seat stadium (Allen Eagle Stadium) for the team. The stadium (which cost nearly $60 million) opened for the 2012 football season.[13][14] It is the fifth largest high school stadium in the state, but the largest designed for the use of only one team. The new facility houses a weight room, wrestling practice facility, and indoor golfing facility.[15]

On February 27, 2014, the stadium was closed due to cracking in concrete making it unsafe to use.[16][17] The 2014 varsity football season played every game on the road, and still managed to go undefeated and win their third consecutive title earning the nickname "Road Warriors" by the local media.

After about $10 million in structural and design repairs by Pogue Construction and PBK (neither the district nor the Allen citizens having to pay anything extra), Allen's stadium was officially reopened on June 5, 2015, for its Class of 2015 graduation and allowed the varsity football team to once again host home games. [18]

Rivalries

Allen has been in the same district with all three Plano Independent School District Senior High Schools (Plano East, Plano Senior, and Plano West) for two decades. Geographical neighbors, the schools make up four of the top 5 largest schools in the North Texas, with Allen being the largest, and Plano West the second largest.[19] While the two districts have a long history with one another, Allen's recent success has diminished the old-time rivalry. Over the past ten seasons, Allen has a 28–2 combined record against the Plano schools, with the last loss coming in 2005 against Plano Senior. Allen has a football winning streak against Plano East that began in the 1999 season, despite being a smaller school for most of those years. This success has allowed Allen to capture the District Title eight consecutive seasons.

Outside of district, Allen has had a rivalry with other notable state powerhouse programs:

  • Coppell High School and Allen has had several intense games, with Allen's last regular season loss dating back to 2012 when they fell to Coppell 27–24 in OT. Both teams are 6A powerhouses, with Coppell reaching the state quarterfinals in 2010 and continuing to qualify for the playoffs while Allen had a three-peat from 2012 to 2014, with their lone loss in 2012 being to Coppell. In 2016 Allen traveled back to Coppell for the first time since their loss in 2012 and defeated Coppell by a score of 42–20, pulling away in the fourth quarter after the score was 21–20 Allen in the third quarter.
  • Southlake Carroll has become a rival program for the Allen Eagles. Carroll ended the Eagle's playoff run four straight seasons between 2003 and 2006, twice in the state semi-finals. Allen and Carroll didn't meet again until the 2009 playoffs in the second round. On the last play of regulation, Allen scored a game-tying touchdown from 27 yards out to push the game into overtime. In the second overtime, Allen decided to go for a 2-point conversion for the win but was stopped yards short, giving Carroll the victory. This game is considered the greatest Texas high school game of the 2000s. Allen and Carroll didn't meet again until 2012, but for the first time in the regular season, as well as for the first game in their new stadium. Allen finally beat Southlake Carroll, with a score of 24–0, shutting out the Dragons. In 2013, the Eagles traveled to Dragon Stadium in Southlake, defeating Carroll once again.
  • Euless Trinity has also become a rival of Allen over the past few seasons. Trinity and Allen first met in the 2008 regular season, when the Trinity Trojans were ranked the number one high school team in the nation. Allen lost at home (its first home loss in 4 seasons) to the Trojans 24–14. The two teams met again the same season, in the Area round of the 5A Division 1 state playoffs, neither has lost a game since their first matchup. This time, Allen emerged victorious, upsetting the top-ranked Trojans 34–21. The two teams met again in the 2009 regular season at Trinity, where Allen beat Trinity 35–28. The two teams met again in the 2010 state playoffs, this time Trinity overpowering Allen 37–35. The two teams would once again meet up in the 2014 State playoffs where Allen would emerge victorious 30–27.
  • DeSoto has become Allen's most recent rival. Allen has defeated DeSoto in the playoffs 4 consecutive seasons; 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.
