History

The Palmdale School District was formed in 1888 after members of the original "Palmenthal" settlement in the present-day Palmdale area petitioned for the construction of a schoolhouse in their small community. The district's first school year commenced on October 8, 1888, and concluded on June 18, 1889. In 1908, a new school, the Palmdale Grammar School, was built to accommodate the growing population of Palmdale. The old schoolhouse was closed in 1910 but was eventually restored and moved to its current location in McAdam Park.[2]
