William Frantz Elementary School Address
William Frantz Elementary School is located at 3811 North Galvez Street, New Orleans, LA 70117. While we share the same name, I’m not related to the school.
Lee Harvey Oswald was born October 18, 1939. He lived on Alvar Street, across from William Frantz Elementary which he attended with his brother.
Decades later, 6 year old Ruby Bridges also attended William Frantz Elementary marking the end of segregation on November 14, 1960.
3 years later, on November 22, 1963, Lee assassinated one of the biggest proponents of civil rights, President John F. Kennedy.

Please send me more information. This above link is really interesting because I am doing a History Fair project on Conflict and Compromise as it relates to Ruby Bridges and desegregation of schools.An other articles about this school is helpful.
