Lewis & Clark Elementary School

Built and dedicated in 1953 along with sister building, Greenacres Elementary School, Lewis & Clark opened its doors in 1954 to young students in the North Pocatello area. A year after completion, additions were already in order. Both schools received three more classrooms, a reading room, and boys and girls restrooms.

Lewis & Clark is located off Alameda Road next to Alameda Center, which houses alternative schools including New Horizon High School, Kinport Academy, and Teen Parent Center. Lewis & Clark students, known as Explorers, embrace their western heritage, often adopting a pioneer theme in their activities and materials including an enchanting Web site.
