Stout Elementary is a neighborhood school nestled in the trees at the corner of 23rd and College Avenue. Built in 1955 and named after A.J. Stout, our school has won the Challenge Award numerous times over the years. Students enjoy activities such as Spelling Bee, Student Council, Geography Bee, Math Contest, and Girls on the Run.
The following information was printed in a leaflet distributed when Stout was opened in 1955.
