About Us
Douglass
Elementary School takes pride in the rich history it
possesses. Established in approximately 1895, Frederick
Douglass School was an all black school due to the period of
segregation that was so prevalent in this nation. This school
housed all grade levels from Kindergarten through the 12th Grade.
Douglass
currently houses grades Pre-kinder through 5th grade. Our
Principal, Mr. Manuel Mendoza, has many years of administrative
experience and love for the faculty, staff and students.
Wonderful things are happening at Douglass Elementary School.
You are welcome to come by and visit us.
