At that time facilities consisted of two elementary schools, one in Sugar Land (now the Lakeview campus), and one in Missouri City (now the E.A. Jones campus). The junior high was located in Sugar Land (now the Lakeview campus) and a high school was located in Missouri City (now Missouri City Middle School campus). Kempner Stadium was used as the athletic facility for Fort Bend ISD at that time.

Prior to desegregation, black students attended one of three schools in Fort Bend ISD. M. R. Wood School in Sugar Land educated students in grades first through twelfth, Oaklane Elementary in Arcola housed grades first through eighth and Staffordshire Elementary in Stafford housed grades first through fourth. (Missouri City High School black students had been transferred to M. R. Wood in past years).

In September 1965, all schools were desegregated and the Oaklane and Staffordshire elementary schools were closed. Oaklane Elementary was sold in 1979 to the county and the Staffordshire property was later sold. As the desegregation plan progressed, students were enrolled in the schools in the attendance zones in which their residences were located. The M. R. Wood students went to Lakeview, the Staffordshire children to E. A. Jones and the Oaklane children to Blue Ridge.
