The Davie School (also known as the Old Davie School) is a historic school in Davie, Florida, USA. It is located at 6650 Griffin Road. Designed by August Geiger, upon its completion in 1917 the Davie School was the first permanent school in the Everglades. It opened its doors in 1918 to 90 students, and was in continuous use as a school until 1980. On March 29, 1988, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Until the early 20th century, what is now Davie was considered an impenetrable swamp, accessible only by water. At first, school was held in a room at the general store along a canal, and in 1911, a two-room wooden structure was built for the growing population of Zona (what is now Davie). The building is now home to the Old Davie School Historical Museum, with exhibits about the area pioneers' westward movement into the Everglades. Adjacent to the school is the 1930s period Viele House, a historic house museum, and the Pioneer House, a replica of a 1908 early settler’s shack. ==References== * (Broward County listings ) at (National Register of Historic Places ) * (Florida's Office of Cultural and Historical Programs ) * * (Broward County listings ) * * (Dade County markers ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Davie School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
