A.C. Steere Elementary School
On the corner of Youree Drive and Ockley Street stands a unique Spanish-style building known as A. C. Steere Elementary School. Built in 1929 on seventeen acres of land, A. C. Steere is a PreK-5 neighborhood school. In 1991, the school was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its grounds uniquely serve both the school as a playground during school hours and the city as a park during non-school hours. In 2005, the Boundless Playground was added to the property to serve all children, including those with physical disabilities, from throughout the community when school is not in session. |
From our gator family to yours, we wish you a happy, safe, and fun-filled summer! Our office will open on July 15th. |

Mrs. Robinson's Class Celebrates Vocabulary Success
Mrs. Robinson promotes great vocabulary usage with her students in a unique way. Each time a word is taught to the students, they are encouraged to use the words in their everyday communication with one another. Each time the words are used in correct context, Mrs. Robinson allows them to pull a stick from her Kerplunk Game. When all of the marbles fall in the game, they celebrate their vocabulary success by having some type of special treat. This week was cotton candy!! Way to go Pre-K!! Keep up the great work!
