The original Tennyson Middle School was built in 1961 as Tennyson Junior High to relieve overcrowding at Lake Air Junior High. It was the first junior high in Waco to have central heating and air conditioning. Approximately one-third of the 950 students used portable buildings due to the small size of the original school.
