's planned "Carrollton North High School" - led to the renaming of both schools. While the names "East Side High School" and "West View High School" were considered by Lewisville ISD as replacements, the name "Hebron High School" was ultimately selected in reference to a school of the same name which was built in the same area during the late 19th century. Hebron was the fourth high school opened by Lewisville ISD, totaling $23 million in preliminary construction costs alone. Hebron was constructed in five phases, with the first three fulfilling the school's immediate student-enrollment needs; construction of the first three phases was completed in June 1998. The fourth and fifth phases included classroom additions and an 800-seat auditorium and were completed after the school's opening. Hebron High School was originally located in the town of

, but its land has since been incorporated into Carrollton. When Hebron was being built, Lewisville ISD asked students of Arbor Creek Middle School to submit ideas for the mascot and student body nickname of the future school. Suggestions included the “Hawks,” the “Hippos,” and the “Hurricanes”; ultimately, it was decided that the “Hawks” best fit the school. Although the school's colors are black, silver, and royal blue, the school was constructed before this was decided; as such, the interior of the school follows an unrelated yellow and green color scheme.

The school opened in 1999, originally only serving two grade levels and 498 students; eventually, the school would expand to serve grades nine through twelve. In 2010, the Hebron High School 9th Grade Campus was opened adjacent to the main campus to relieve stress caused by a growing student body.
