- Kermit High School is the only public high school in Kermit, Texas and is under the administration of Kermit Independent School District located in Winkler County. It is located at the corner of G.E. "Tommy" Thompson Boulevard (School Street) and North Avenue D in Kermit, Texas. As of the Spring of 2014, the school had an enrollment of 352 students attending grades nine through twelve. Kermit High School began the 2011–12 school year in its old facilities but moved to the new school facility on September 26, 2011 after the Kermit ISD Board of Trustees approved the new building on September 20, 2011. The school's mascot is the Yellow Jacket. Kermit High School was established in 1928 as a public secondary school that offered classes in most fields of study. This first school had seven staff members and an enrollment of 115. The school initially only fielded three sports teams, girls basketball coached by Superintendent B.F. Meek, boys basketball coached by R.M. Cook, and a football team also coached by R.M. Cook. However, the football team did not actually compete until 1931 due to lack of essential materials. Shortly afterward in 1932, the school added tennis to its sports program. In 1934, Mr. Tommy Thompson came to Kermit as principal and coach along with many other staff members. Tommy Thompson would later serve as Superintendent of the district from 1948 to 1975 with much success, accomplishment, and an excellent reputation with statewide recognition as an outstanding administrator. Today, Kermit High School is organized into 20 departments/units, with a strong emphasis on science, math, social studies, and language arts. It is also well recognized for its extra-curricular organizations such as athletics and sports, band, choir, theater, and an active student council. Student athletics, both organized and intramural, are an important part of student and alumni life at Kermit schools. The school's interscholastic competitive sports teams and the nineteen UIL state championships won in many different sports have helped to keep Kermit High School recognized statewide. Kermit High School fields eight men's and eight women's teams that compete in UIL District 4, Class AAA athletics and football UIL District 2 – Division I, Class AAA. (en)
