History
History
The school was named after Oscar Dean Wyatt, a longtime principal of R. L. Paschal High School. When the school opened, the student body chose its mascot, the chaparral, from Fort Worth's American Basketball League team, the Ft Worth Chaparrals. In 2019 some area residents of Rosemont, in the portion zoned to Paschal, protested when they found the FWISD planned to rezone them to South Hills High School.
