HistoryTop of Page

Los Molinos Elementary was constructed in 1962. The school facilities continue to be a focus for ongoing improvement:
  • The playground boxes were the subject of recent improvement. The pea gravel was removed and replaced with recycled and shredded rubber.
  • The school annually brings in the CDF (California Department of Forestry) workers to work with our grounds crews in making needed improvements.
  • The Booster Club improved the playground by replacing and painting the wall ball walls and the backboards for the basketball courts and purchased an electronic marquee at the front of the school in previous years.
Although the school buildings are old, the school is well taken care of and the community of Los Molinos has access to the fields and play equipment during off-school hours.
