I'm from another big North Texas school. We had 963 when I graduated in 1995...HS is only 11-12 in one building...so it wasn't that crowded. Our school is the size of an average Community College. My brother graduated in 1998, and he had almost 1300. They just built another HS in our city (3 total 11-12 grades). This has alleviated some of the numbers, but it's a rapldly growing area.
To answer swissmiss...you may not have been 'close' per se, but I pretty much knew who everyone was. One thing that stands out as a positive of large schools...in my instance anyway...was that with so many people, the instance of cliques is so much smaller. There were just TOO many people to have a 'popular' group and the like. I loved high school!
