Standardized dress
Huntsville ISD has standardized dress for grades 5-12 adopted by the board on June 19, 2008.
Racial integration
Until the 1960s, the school system, like many others in the United States, segregated schools by race, with white students attending one set of schools and non-white students attending another.
The district was fully racially integrated in 1968. Elementary schools began to be integrated before 1965. In 1965, students from non-white schools were allowed to apply to attend Huntsville High School instead of the non-white high school, Samuel W. Houston High School. One of the first African-American student to attend Huntsville High School was Joreen Kelly. She later became a teacher at Huntsville High School.
