School Overview

Frederick Douglass High School sits in the historic Vine City neighborhood of Atlanta, a community rich with civil rights history and just minutes from downtown. The school draws families who are invested in a close-knit urban environment and value a school with deep roots in its community, even as the surrounding area continues to evolve and grow. For families who want their kids immersed in the energy of Atlanta while being part of a school with a strong sense of identity and place, Douglass offers that connection to neighborhood and history that larger, more suburban schools simply can't replicate.
