Editing Sweeny, Texas (section)

==Education==
Schools are part of the [[Sweeny Independent School District]] which serves the city of Sweeny as well as outlying areas including Churchill, Shady Acres, River's End and [[Old Ocean, Texas|Old Ocean]]. The high school's mascot is the Bulldog.

Schools in the district are Sweeny Elementary (K–5), Sweeny Junior High (6–8) and [[Sweeny High School (Texas)|Sweeny High School]] (9–12), which is a 4A school. In 2007, construction began on the high school to renovate the older building. With growing security concerns, the Board of Trustees approved the renovation of the school, because most of the campus was open to the outside. The current school now has limited outside access. Classes met in the newly renovated building December 1, 2008.

The [[Texas Legislature]] assigned the area in Sweeny ISD to the [[Brazosport College]] district.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/ED/htm/ED.130.htm|title=EDUCATION CODE CHAPTER 130.
