===History of schools===

At the time FBISD formed, in 1959, there was one school for black students in Arcola, Oaklane Elementary School, serving grades 1–8. Black students in grades 9–12 were assigned to [[M.R. Wood School]] in Sugar Land. White students, at the time, were assigned to an elementary school in Missouri City, a junior high school in Sugar Land, and a high school in Missouri City. Those sites now house E. A. Jones Elementary School, Lakeview Elementary School, and Missouri City Middle School, respectively. [[Dulles High School (Sugar Land, Texas)|Dulles High School]] became established as the white high school of FBISD. Desegregation occurred in 1965, and Oaklane closed at that time.<ref name=FBISDSchoolHist/> Oaklane students were reassigned to Blue Ridge Elementary School in [[Blue Ridge, Houston|Blue Ridge]], now a part of Houston. Dulles Junior High School served as FBISD's sole junior high school from March 1965 to August 1975.<ref name=History2008>{{cite web|url=http://www.fortbend.k12.tx.us:80/about/history.cfm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080907032420/http://www.fortbend.k12.tx.us/about/history.cfm|url-status=dead|archive-date=2008-09-07|title=FBISD History|publisher=Fort Bend Independent School District|date=2018-12-03|accessdate=2018-12-03}}</ref> After desegregation, Dulles High was the only zoned high school in the district until [[Willowridge High School (Houston)|Willowridge High School]] in Houston opened in 1979.<ref>Solomon, Jerome.
