Monday Memories - Douglass High School 1965


This week, I'm going to Douglass High School's 1965 yearbook, "The Ram."





I wish the stage was still able to be used like this.
(It's now converted into classrooms)




Here's a close-up on my favorite candid/caption

   Douglass opened in 1941 as a segregated black high school. It closed in 1968 with the school system integrating. Since then, Douglass has served many purposes for the school system. In the 1970's, a deal was worked out to share Douglass between LCPS and Parks & Rec. Douglass continues to be used today.
