School History
Bradley Elementary School was opened in 1944-1945 at the intersection of Crestview and Baseline. It had to be rebuilt because the office area and some classrooms did not meet state requirements that would make the building safe in the event of an earthquake, so the school was largely rebuilt. The new buildings opened in 1972. Elizabeth Bradley
The school was named for Elizabeth Brad

ley. From 1920 until she died in August 1943, she was the attendance officer for the school district. Her job was to go around the city and if she found students truant, out of school without a proper reason, she brought them to school. School Principals
When the school opened, Mary E. Hughes was half-time supervising principal. She was made a full-time principal the next year and stayed at Bradley until 1955 when Wilson Grace took over.

Planning an Upcoming Absence? Sign Up for STIS!
At Bradley Elementary, we know that sometimes families need to plan trips or handle important matters during the school year. If you are aware of an upcoming absence, we encourage you to sign up for Short-Term Independent Study (STIS). STIS allows your child to keep up with classroom learning, complete assignments for credit, and avoid falling behind. It also helps maintain strong attendance records, which support both student success and our school community. Please contact the front office as soon as you know about a planned absence so we can partner with you to keep your child on track!
