The school, which was opened in 1921, was named after the late Ellis T. Hartley who was superintendent of schools at the turn of the century.
Hartley was the first school built under the official building program adopted by the Board of Education. It cost approximately $8,000 to build. The grant for it to be built was given on April 21, 1919 and the school opened in 1921. The original building had 13 rooms: 7 regular classrooms, 1 kindergarten, shop for low grade handiwork, a community room, a principal’s office, nurse’s room and teachers room.
Today Hartley serves a diverse population of families in a unique urban neighborhood. Our exceptional staff members provide quality educational services to students in preschool through 5th grade.
