The History of Donald Elementary

Donald Elementary School was named for the Donald family who was among the first families to settle in the Flower Mound area and helped to develop the community. The history of Donald School began on September 1, 1877, when three members of the Donald community in southern Denton County ventured to the county courthouse with $192.50 and the desire to organize a school. The new school, named Donald Academy, served students in grades one through ten for sixty-five years. The Donald Academy was consolidated with the Lewisville Independent School District in 1947.  

Built near the original site, Donald Elementary School was dedicated on September 19, 1989. It stands as a reminder of the spirit, determination, and pride of the early Flower Mound settlers. New generations provide a link to the history of the community by attending Donald and learning about its past as they build its future.

Flower Mound, Texas, is located in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. Donald Elementary is located at 2400 Forest Vista Drive, near the "The Mound" for which Flower Mound is named.
