History

In September 1973, F. L. Schlagle High School opened. The school was named after Frank Leslie Schlagle, the former superintendent of schools of the Kansas City, Kansas School District (1932–1962). Opening of the school was accompanied by a major shift in attendance zones between the old Washington district and the old USD #500. The Schlagle zone was carved from the Washington and Wyandotte areas, but in addition, a major part of the Wyandotte zone lying generally north of Quindaro Boulevard and east as far as 12th Street was attached to the Washington zone. The effect of those changes was to increase significantly the numbers and proportions of Black students at Washington, to reduce the Black enrollment at Wyandotte and to establish an integrated student body at Schlagle. The opening of F. L. Schlagle coincided with the opening of J. C. Harmon High School[1]
