Tomball Senior High School is an accredited public high school in the city of Tomball, Texas. It is the only high school in the Tomball Independent School District, which serves nearly 9,500 students. The high school was newly remodeled (as of 2005) and the cougar statue in front of the school was donated by an artist in Magnolia.
As population in the Tomball area and schools increases, Tomball voters have recently approved a $198 million bond which will fund renovations to Tomball High and other existing schools, as well as the construction of a new high school (construction to begin in 2009) which will eventually help to alleviate some of the population pressures on Tomball High School.
In 2008, Tomball High School Assistant Principal Ed Monzingo died from colon cancer.
