About Boone, Daniel Boone Elementary School

The site was known as the Fairfield, North Shore, Pratt and Washtenaw site. The construction of an elementary school was recommended on August 25, 1926 to take the place of five portables and to furnish relief for Armstrong. The school was named for Daniel Boone on April 27, 1927. On August 8, 1928, the old Branch #1 of Armstrong at North Shore Avenue and Washtenaw Avenue was absorbed by the new Boone School.

It's great to be able to communicate with my first school, Daniel Boone Elementary School on the North Side of Chicago. I have a November birthday, so I was not quite 5 years old when I started Kindergarten in Mrs. O'Conner's classroom in the Fall of 1964. Mrs. O'Conner was a wonderful Kindergarten teacher, kind and patient. I remember drawing a "cornucopia" for Halloween 1964.
