Key, Francis Scott 小學

Established in 1903 as Oceanside Primary School and later became FS Key, our school was relocated to the art deco style building completed in 1938. It was then renovated in 2012 to make the school fully ADA compliant. The campus includes a two-story main building and a permanent bungalow with 26 classrooms, a library, a computer lab, a multipurpose auditorium or cafeteria, and administrative offices. Our schoolyard is open on weekends for community use as part of a Shared School Yard program.

Our School Mission: Francis Scott Key Elementary School community will work together to set high expectations and strive for excellence through a student ­centered approach by fostering a holistic, unified, diverse, collaborative and supportive learning environment.
