Welcome
In 1957, the doors of Finley Elementary School first swung open, welcoming eager young minds into its halls. For over two decades, it stood as a beacon of education in Orange County, nurturing the minds and hearts of its students. However, in 1979, a chapter in its history came to a close as the school faced closure. Little did anyone know that this was not the end, but merely a pause in the incredible journey of this institution.
