School History

School History

Elk Grove’s fourth middle school opened in the fall of 1994 as the feeder school for Laguna Creek High School. The school is named for a legendary principal of Elk Grove Union High School who served from 1907 to 1909. A dynamic woman who got the high school accredited with the formation of the first rural library in California, Miss Eddy went on to create libraries all over the state and in other countries.
