The Avondale School District is a public school district in Metro Detroit in the U.S. state of Michigan, serving portions of Auburn Hills, Bloomfield Township, Rochester Hills, and Troy.
[11] The district accommodated the growth by building a junior high school and requesting a bond issue in 1955.
[17] Although it is not linked to the current district, it represents education in the community during the pioneer era.
The city of Rochester Hills created a historic district for Stiles School in 2010 because of its exemplary Collegiate Gothic architecture.
It was built at 3976 S Livernois Rd., Rochester Hills (then Avon Township) in 1929 by architect Frederick D. Madison, replacing a series of one-room schoolhouses (the earliest being from 1871).
The kindergarten room has murals depicting nursery-rhymes and a fireplace surrounded by Flint Faience animal-themed tiles.
[20] Built in 1926 at 2251 W Auburn Road, in Rochester Hills, Elmwood was closed by the district in June 1981 during a budget crisis.
