The school was named in honor of Mr. Thomas “Tom” Haley (1872-1963) who played an active role in the Irving community. Of his contributions, Mr. Haley supervised the construction of the early Beltline Road; he was president of the Irving School district voting in the building of the first brick school house; and he was the oldest original land title holder in Dallas County.
