Hudson High School is a public high school located just outside Lufkin, Texas (USA) and classified as a 4A school by the University Interscholastic League. It is part of the Hudson Independent School District located in central Angelina County. For the 2021-2022 school year, the school was given a B by the Texas Education Agency.[2] In December 2021, Stephen F. Austin State University (SFA) announced Hudson High School as a Distinguished High School Program partner. With this, SFA began providing Hudson students with scholarship opportunities if they choose to attend the university.[3]
Band
[edit]The school's band has a unique relationship with the nearby Apple Springs Independent School District.
Apple Springs participates in six-man football but does not offer a band program, while Hudson has a band but does not participate in football. Therefore, the Hudson band participates at Apple Springs games. The unusual relationship was filmed by the crew of the popular Texas Country Reporter.[4]
