FFSD operates 17 elementary schools, three middle schools, three A+ and NCA-CASI-accredited high schools and an alternative school. It also offers a comprehensive early education program, the Challenger Learning Center space education facility and the Little Creek Nature Area, a 97-acre nature preserve used for experiential learning on subjects such as biology, ecology and related areas of science.

History

On June 7, 1975, a U.S. district court ordered FFSD to annex the Berkeley School District and the Kinloch School District; therefore the Ferguson-Florissant district began to serve Berkeley and Kinloch.

In 2004, Berkeley High School closed, replaced by McCluer South-Berkeley High School

On December 8, 2010, the Board of Education named Dr. Art J. McCoy, II as Superintendent. He is the first African-American superintendent for the school district and at age 33 is one of the youngest in the state of Missouri and nation.

On Jan. 30, 2015, the Board of Education unanimously approved Dr. Joseph Davis as superintendent of schools, effective July 1.
