Шаблон:Infobox school Bishop Byrne High School was a Catholic high school in Port Arthur, Texas. It was located near Texas State Highway 73.[1] It was in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Beaumont.

History

Christopher E. Byrne, a bishop, consolidated St. James High School and St. Mary High School into a single school, which initially had the two campuses but later got a single one. In 1949 the first class of students graduated.[1] In 1965 the school had 500 students. In 1983 170 students were enrolled. In 1983 all of the teachers were lay teachers except for a single nun; the school administration believed having more clergy on staff would show a stronger religious image and encourage more people to enroll.[2]

The school closed in 1983. The owners sold the building, and Christus Southeast Texas established outpatient operations in it.[1]

The Bishop Byrne Alumni Association is in operation.[1]
