Its initial enrollment was 600, but it declined down to more than 200 students in 2013, since in 2007 6th graders were reassigned to J. L.

It gained its middle school in 2012.[4] In 2015 of The Dallas Morning News wrote that it had "strong academics, passionate students and devoted parents" and that it "is considered a neighborhood gem in North Oak Cliff".[5] There are high income White American families in North Oak Cliff who send their children to Rosemont due to the magnet program; overall 66% of the students as of 2018 were classified as low income.[6] The parents stated that principal Anna Brining had worked to make the school strong; in 2015 DISD notified Brining that her contract will not be renewed.[5]

The Rosemont Early Childhood Parent-Teacher Association or RECPTA is focused on fundraising for Rosemont;[6] originally known as the Rosemont Preschool Association, it as of 2010 was the oldest parent-teacher association of an early childhood program as it was first established in 1926. In the local area the nickname for the group is the "Mommy Mafia".[7] RECPTA holds an auction party each year, with about $30,000 netted per session.[8] In 2018 the organization had tension between the board, which wished to use funds to benefit other schools, and the membership, which wanted the board to solely focus on Rosemont.[6]

Lee Elementary School but renamed on July 1, 2018 as the former namesake was a general in the Confederacy.[63][64] Circa 2007 the school was known for high staff retention periods to the point where a teacher who had been at the school for fewer than ten years was considered to be a newcomer. At one time enrollment was 250, but it later got a peak enrollment of almost 600. Enrollment declined by 2007 partly because some apartment complexes housing children were razed. In addition Park Lane Elementary opened, serving areas previously zoned to Lee. By 2007 the enrollment was about 250, 30% from outside of the school's attendance zone, with enrollment being about 45% of the building's capacity and with only the ground floor in use. There were 18 students per teacher.[74] Keri Mitchell of The Advocate Lakewood/East Dallas wrote that a 2007 campaign to attract more neighborhood families "fizzled".[75] In 2012 the enrollment was 58% of the building's capacity.

  • H.I. Holland Elementary School at Lisbon
  • Lida Hooe Elementary School
  • L. L. Hotchkiss Elementary School - In 1991 Dallas ISD officials proposed that Hotchkiss Elementary School reopen as a neighborhood school during the 1992-1993 school year. The Montessori program previously at Hotchkiss would be moved to Dealey Elementary School. The proposed attendance zone for Hotchkiss was a triangular area bounded by Fair Oaks Avenue, Northwest Highway, and White Rock Creek.[79] The proposed Hotchkiss neighborhood would relieve Kramer, Pershing, Preston Hollow, and Dan D. Rogers schools.[80] In 1992 federal judge Barefoot Sanders blocked the reopening of Hotchkiss,[81] so school board members filed an appeal with the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.[82] In 1994 Hotchkiss re-opened as a neighborhood school. The school expected to receive 875 students; it actually received almost 925. The school had to use 17 portable classrooms, and two classrooms had to be converted into food storage rooms. Judy Zimny, the principal of Hotchkiss, said that most of the students came from the apartments in the Abrams Road, Northwest Highway, and Skillman Road area. The school was 42% black, 38% Hispanic, and 20% White. The school is located within what was then a mostly-White residential neighborhood, but in 1994 most of the White students to Hotchkiss were bussed in from other locations. About 100 students from other areas were voluntarily enrolled in Hotchkiss so Hotchkiss's racial demographics were more balanced.[83]

Under the plan, portions of the attendance boundaries of Pershing, Preston Hollow, and Rogers would have been modified.[90] In 1991 the Kramer, Pershing, and Preston Hollow schools had a combined total of 32 portable buildings to house excess students. Parents from those schools supported plans to re-open Hotchkiss Elementary School as a neighborhood school, so it could house excess students.[91]
  • Richard Lagow Elementary School
  • Lakewood Elementary School is in Lakewood, Dallas, first established in 1951. Its original building could house around 500-550 students. Circa 1984 the school first started installing temporary buildings to accommodate an increased enrollment.[92] In 2012 Eric Nicholson of the Dallas Observer stated that Lakewood Elementary had "superb" academics, citing its regular appearance as an exemplary-ranked school by the Texas Education Agency and how its test scores were far superior to DISD and state averages.[93] In 2014 the school had 853 students with 17% classified as being low income; 76% were non-Hispanic white.[76] As of 2016, 96% of the student body was not low-income, making it the only DISD school with 80% or more non-low income students, and it was also the school with the highest percentage of Anglo White students in the school district.[94] In 2015 Nicholson wrote that Lakewood elementary parents are perennially opposed to changing the school's attendance zone and that they "are fiercely protective of their successful but carefully gerrymandered neighborhood" institution.[2] In 2014 other DISD board members opposed a proposal from fellow board member Bernadette Nuttall to rezone some houses zoned to Lakewood to Mata and Mount Auburn schools.[95] Due to overcrowding, by 2014 the Lakewood Elementary Expansion Fund (LEEF) generated $500,000 to fund an architectural plan for an expansion,[96] and DISD proposed a "Bridge Plan" to allow for the expansion of the school.[97] In 2013 parents began a campaign to raise $15 million for expanding Lakewood, wanting to replace its older facility and the portable buildings that housed over half of Lakewood Elementary's students.[93]

Ayala wrote that Milam "has limited space to grow much more if a new specialized program was offered there."[20] In 2018 DISD designated it as one of six "decision point" schools which could be closed due to a low student population.[20]
  • William Brown Miller Elementary School
  • Mockingbird Elementary School is located in Lower Greenville,[37] and also serves Greenland Hills (the "M Streets"),[106] and is in proximity to it.[3] Its campus has a capacity of about 400 students.[95] It was Previously known as Stonewall Jackson Elementary School but renamed on July 1, 2018 as the former namesake was a general in the Confederacy.[63][64] Mockingbird houses Dallas ISD's deaf program for elementary school.

Former schools

Former high schools

  • Norman Robert Crozier Technical High School (the school was known by many names)
    • Dallas High School 1907–1916
    • Main High School 1916–1917
    • Bryan Street High School 1917–1928
    • Dallas Technical High School 1928–1942
    • Crozier Technical High School 1942–1971 (school closed in June 1971, next year most went to Skyline HS 7777 Forney road. Some students that came from Crozier Tech negotiated with DISD to show the diplomas as N.R. Crozier Technical High School up to the year 1975)
    • Business and Management Magnet Center 1975-May 1995 (School relocated to Townview Center May 1995)
  • Pleasant Grove High School 1953–1957 (the school had been in existence since 1939 but was in Pleasant Grove ISD until that district was absorbed into Dallas ISD in 1953. Today the campus is used by John Quincy Adams Elementary School)
  • Forest Avenue High School 1916–1956 (was converted from a whites-only school to an African-American school and renamed James Madison High School, and the white students were sent to Crozier Tech)[124]
  • Rylie High School 1956–1963 (converted to a junior high and replaced with H. Grady Spruce High School)
  • A. Maceo Smith High School
  • E. D. Walker High School for pupils with disabilities - Later instead housed an elementary school program for advanced students[125]
  • A Health Special Alternative High School, for pregnant students was Constructed named Maya Angelou School[126]

Former middle schools

  • Pearl C. Anderson Middle School (closed 2013) - The school was in South Dallas.[26] Shortly after the closure, the school was targeted by thieves and vandals. In 2013 the Dallas County Appraisal District (DCAD) appraised the property's value as $208,100.[111]
  • Edward H. Cary Middle School was in North Dallas, and serves a section of the Preston Hollow area, including Old Preston Hollow or the "Estate area".[22][127] In 2019 the school had 500 students. In 2019 a strike from a tornado destroyed the school building. In the period until a new campus building is established, Franklin Middle School was scheduled to take about 60% of the students while the remainder were to go to Medrano Middle School.[128] It was disestablished in 2020.[129]
  • S. S. Conner Junior High School 1955–1964 (the S. S. Conner name was subsequently taken by an elementary school that opened in 1965)
  • Edison Middle Learning Center (closed 2018)[130] It was located in West Dallas and named after Thomas Edison. In 2018 it had scores in Texas state tests, considered unacceptable by the Texas Education Agency (TEA), for five consecutive years in a row. In 2018 the number of students was below half of the building's capacity;[131] in 2015 the utilization, the smallest in the district's traditional schools, was 32%. Hobbs and Hacker stated that "Not many families choose to send their children to the habitually low-performing school."[95] Every single student was classified as low income in the 2013-2014 school year, and by 2018 the percentage of such was 90%. The region of Dallas in which it was located was majority Hispanophone. The physical plant of the building was also deteriorating at that time. Bill Zeeble of described the last principal, Earl Gilmore, as the "last-chance principal".[131] In an attempt to keep the school open, DISD made Edison a "Accelerating Campus Excellence" (ACE) school.[131] However the district ultimately had the school closed in 2018; if DISD had not closed Edison that year, the State of Texas would have had the right to take action against Edison. As a result L. G. Pinkston High School expanded to grades 7-12 and absorbed the students.[130] In 2019, Edison began housing students from Jefferson High as the school's building sustained damage from a 2019 tornado.[128]
  • D. A. Hulcy Middle School - In the Red Bird community,[111] it closed in 2012,[26] due to a decline in the district's budget.[2] For a period DISD used it as a police training academy. In 2013 the DCAD appraised the value of the property at $11.1 million.[111] It became D.A. Hulcy STEAM Middle School in 2015.[2]
  • Maynard Jackson Middle School (closed 2011) - Prior to summer 2011 the community often complained about poor conditions at the school. DISD rezoned the students to Kennedy Curry Middle School in southern Dallas.[31]
  • Rylie Junior High School 1963–1978 (converted from the former Rylie High School; later closed and became a charter school in the 1980s)
  • Sequoyah Junior High School 1958–1969 (replaced by Thomas Edison Junior High School; Sequoyah was converted to an elementary campus)

Former primary schools

  • Addison School (closed 1966)
  • Alamo School (closed 1968)
  • Arlington Park Elementary School - Closed in 2012[26]
  • Stephen F. Austin School (opened in 1886 as East Dallas School; renamed Stephen F. Austin School in 1902; served as an elementary school until 1976, when the building was taken over by the High School for the Health Professions; the structure was razed around the year 2000) [132][133][134]
  • James B. Bonham Elementary School (Closed in 2012) - It served most of Vickery Place.[73][135] Bonham opened in 1923 as the Vickery Place School. Designed by C.D. Hill, the building's price was about $121,000. The school received its current name in December 1939. The Vickery Meadow Association wrote "We believe this was done to avoid confusion with the town of Vickery, which was annexed into DISD soon afterwards."[136] Bonham Elementary won the National Excellence in Urban Education Award in 2009 and the Blue Ribbon School Award in 2010, and the Texas Education Agency (TEA) ranked the campus as exemplary for several years. The school had above 200 students in the 2011-2012 school year, leading Eric Nicholson of the Dallas Observer to write that the school was "badly underused".[2] There were 22 students per teacher at that time, which was lower than the common ration of 27 to 1,[137] and underpopulation was one reason stated to close the school. The student population sharply declined as neighborhood gentrification occurred, and the inflation-adjusted median income increased by 80% from 1990 to 2010. Fewer school-age children lived in the area, with 580 residents 18 or younger in 2010, compared to 1,187 in 1990. The husband of the president of the Bonham parent-teacher association, Dave Walkington, stated that the district may have additionally selected Bonham as a way of telling the Texas Legislature that it needed additional funds and that high performing schools were in jeopardy. Additionally articles from local publications stated that DISD would have reductions in federal funding if it closed campuses with poor academic performance.[2] DISD board members stated that deciding to close a small school regardless of its academic performance would be a fair decision.[138] Students were rezoned to Robert E. Lee Elementary School, since renamed Geneva Heights Elementary School.[26][139] All of the final teaching employees, including principal Sandra Fernandez, were reassigned to Callejo Elementary, which had opened that year.[62] The physical building, post-closure, had sustained some vandalism. After the closure DISD immigration intake facility opened on the Bonham school grounds, but not in the main building. In 2013 the DCAD appraised the property's value as $6.7 million.[111] The Bonham campus became a female-only STEAM school in 2016.[9]
  • City Park Elementary School (Closed in 2012)[26] - City Park Elementary School in Cedars, named for its location across Old City Park, first opened in 1919,[140] and served the community until it closed.[141][142] As of 2013 it is used as an after-school program's classroom location.[143] In 2014 the nonprofit Vogel Alcove began leasing the school building, providing day care and preschool to homeless children.[144]
  • David Crockett School (replaced by Ignacio Zaragoza Elementary in 1990; currently houses special programs) - Ken Good renovated the school building after purchasing it and was selling it in 2013.[111]
  • Eagle Ford School (closed 1968)
  • James W. Fannin Elementary School - Closed in 2012,[26] due to a decline in the district's budget.[2] After the closure, an adult basic education program was set up there.[111]
  • Frazier Elementary School - Closed in 2012[26] - An animal infestation occurred afterward.[111]
  • Tom W. Field Elementary School - In 2010 DISD investigated Tom W. Field Elementary and discovered that the administration forced teachers to not teach certain subjects, and made false grades to make it appear that the students took the classes.[145] Many of the students originated from a housing complex a distance away, and a school bus transported them to Field. In 2018 the enrollment count was 224. That year DISD designated it as one of six "decision point" schools which could be closed due to a low student population.[20] Field closed in later that year.[128] Ayala stated that the student population could be moved to Joe May Elementary.[20] In October 2019 the district began temporarily using the Field building to house Walnut Hill Elementary School students as their building was destroyed by a tornado.[128]
  • Harlee Elementary School - Closed in 2012[26]
  • Thomas C. Hassell School (closed 1980 and demolished to allow for roadway expansion)
  • Stephen J. Hay School (closed in the late 1970s and has housed several special programs since)
  • Benito Juarez School (closed 1971)
  • John F. Kennedy Learning Center - Circa 2010 the school had 648 students, but the number declined and in 2015 there were 412 students.[2]
  • Mirabeau B. Lamar School (currently houses special programs)
  • Letot School (closed 1968)
  • H. S. Thompson Learning Center/Elementary School (closed 2012) - The school was in South Dallas. As part of reforms encouraged by Judge Sanders, DISD increased the school day length and increased teacher salaries in schools designated as "learning centers" which included Thompson.[109] In 1990 the school had over 900 students, and there were 2,800 residents 0-14 within a 1-mile (1.6 km) radius.[26] From 2000 to 2010 the number of black students at H.S. Thompson Elementary School declined as the housing occupancy levels in its attendance boundary decreased and as the Rhoads Terrace housing projects and other area housing projects were closed and demolished. In 2010 the school had 220 students; half African American and half Hispanic.[146] By 2010 the numbers of students and 0-14 area residents declined to around 200 and 1,110, respectively.[26] In 2013 several DISD administrators suggested to the board that it could reopen H.S. Thompson,[147] but this did not happen. By 2013 the former school was targeted by vandals. In 2013 it was one of the two school properties with the lowest assessed value by the DCAD, at $61,570.[111] A 2016 fire occurred on the second floor of the building.[148]
  • Vickery School (closed 1971)
  • Wheatland School (closed 1964)
  • Phillis Wheatley Elementary School (closed 2012) - The facility is located in the Wheatley Place community in South Dallas.[149] The post-closure facility was vandalized. In 2013 it was one of the two school properties with the lowest assessed value by the DCAD, at $69,720.[111] In 1993 it was nominated as a Dallas historic landmark.[150]
