Historic
Jesse Reno School
Since 1903
The Reno School is a historic school building located at 4820 Howard Street NW, completed in 1903 to serve the needs of the Reno community in Washington, D.C. Like all public schools in the District at the time, it was segregated and served African American students in the area west of Rock Creek Park and north of Georgetown. The school was closed in 1950 after the Reno community was evicted to create Fort Reno Park and the adjacent Alice Deal Middle School.
Subsequently, the D.C. government converted the structure into a Civil Defense office and constructed antenna towers on its grounds.
