Our School

Originally established in 1909, Fred Moore High School was first named Fred Douglas High School, serving the African-American community. In 1948, the building where the campus currently stands was built. Two years later in 1950, the school was renamed after Fred Moore, a former teacher and principal at Douglas High who remained connected to the community.

The school closed in 1968 and reopened 24 years later to serve students looking for flexibility in their education. It was renovated in 1996 to better meet the needs of these students. 

Fred Moore High School provides a true alternative climate where students can graduate at an accelerated pace under the guidance of highly qualified classroom teachers. The school offers a compassionate learning environment that focuses on the academics needed to obtain a high school diploma. 

Fred Moore High School helps students to stay in school – especially those facing challenging circumstances. It is a great alternative for students who want a change from the traditional high school setting. To enhance that compassionate learning environment, Fred Moore offers small classes and flexible schedules within regular school hours, to assist students in accelerating their academic goals.
