The David Douglas School District serves over 10,330 students from kindergarten through twelfth grade. Our students come from diverse backgrounds as 23.7% of our students are English Language Learners. At our last count we had 67 different languages spoken by our students.

We are proud of the many special programs we offer our students in the David Douglas School District. All of our schools have licensed music teachers, librarians, counselors, physical education teachers, as well as other curriculum specialists. We offer full-day kindergarten at all of our elementary schools.

David Douglas High School is a comprehensive high school offering a wide range of educational opportunities that acknowledge the diversity of students’ academic, career and social needs in preparation for the future and the world of work. As ninth and tenth graders, our students receive a rigorous core academic education and choose from a varied and challenging elective program. Our eleventh and twelfth graders select one of six Career Related Learning Areas (Arts and Communication; Business and Management; Health Sciences; Industrial and Engineering Systems; or Social and Human Services). Our non-traditional high school program is at the Fir Ridge Campus and serves approximately 230 students.
