History
New Caney ISD became an independent school district in 1938. The high school, named New Caney High School, had a total of nine students in its first graduating class. That original building is still in use as the district's "The Learning Center" alternative school, and as the NCISD police department and emergency operations center.
NCHS was located at on the southbound side of Interstate 69 in Porter until the building burned down in the 1980s. The campus was moved to its current New Caney location in 1987. The former Porter building was converted into New Caney Middle School, and is now White Oak Middle School.
