B. F. Terry High School is located in Rosenberg, Texas, United States, and is part of the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District.

Terry serves parts of Rosenberg, and all of Beasley, Kendleton and Powell Point.[5][6] It formerly served the communities of Booth, Crabb and Pleak.[7]

It is named after white supremacist Benjamin Franklin Terry, the leader of the 8th Texas Cavalry of the Confederate Army, also known as Terry's Texas Rangers. He was also a Delegate to the Texas Secession Convention of 1861 where Texas formally ratified black subjugation as its core rationale to join the Civil War against the United States.
