Founded in 1928, Lee High School sits on the banks of Goose Creek in the southern part of Baytown. As such, the school adopted the Gander as its mascot, the only school in Texas to do so. In 2007, the Gander was voted as the best mascot in Texas.[2] The school's colors are maroon and white. Over the years, REL has garnered several fight songs. The school's official fight song is "Dull Razor Blues", a foxtrot that is played up-tempo at the mid point of each half. The other unofficial fight song is "Southern Special", a swing version of the traditional song "Dixie", played at a very fast tempo after the team scores. The final school song is commonly referred to as the 'medley', is played by the Lee Band while marching parade style. It consists of a compilation of three songs: "Are You From Dixie?", "Waitin' on the Robert E. Lee", and "Washington and Lee Swing".^[1]

Lee High School has a strong history of academic, fine arts, and athletic success. On April 29, 1987, a three-alarm fire destroyed the main building. Initially thought the be accidental, the fire was eventually ruled arson. The main building was rebuilt and formally rededicated in 1988.^[1]
