Julia Caldwell Frazier, the person after whom the school was named, was born on Oct. 10, 1863, in Sommerville, Ala.

When Julia finished high school, she enrolled in Howard University and worked while going to college. She was the only woman in her senior class of six and received a Bachelor of Arts degree. Howard University bestowed on her an honorary Master of Arts degree.

She came to Texas in 1892 and began her teaching career in the Dallas Public Schools. She holds the distinction of being the first African American woman to serve as principal of a Dallas High School. Because of her outstanding work in education in Dallas and her contributions to her community, a Dallas school was named after her in 1930.
