On October 19, 1925, the first classes were held at the two-room schoolhouse now known as the Apollo School.
The Apollo School Foundation is planning a celebration exactly 100 years later to commemorate that historic day.
Boy Scouts from Hobe Sound Troop 812, under the supervision of Scoutmaster Jeff Batton, will perform as an Honor Guard at the Centennial Celebration on October 19.
Fourth-grader students from Hobe Sound Elementary School will choose items for a time capsule to be buried during the October 19 Centennial Celebration on the grounds of the Historic Apollo School.
Visit with alumni, former board members,

restoring the building, neighbors,
