W. E. B. Dubois High School is a public high school located in Baltimore, Maryland.
[edit] History
Dubois was formed along with Reginald Lewis and Samuel Banks high schools, following the break up of Northern high school by the Baltimore City Board of school commissioners. The strategy was to make high schools smaller to help increase the student teacher ratio, increase parental involvement and improve student safety. However, in 2005, Dubois was judged as one of the most dangerous schools in the country.[1]
