Welcome to our website honoring J.J. Finley Elementary School’s 75th anniversary. J.J. Finley is the oldest-operating elementary school in Alachua County, Florida. The J.J. Finley PTA is proud to sponsor this website, which offers everyone who has ever been part of the Finley community, the chance to share their memories.
Finley's 75th Anniversary Celebration was held on Friday, April 24, 2015. View photos from the celebration, which included a book fair, games for children, a chorus performance, birthday cake, artwork, food trucks, a photo booth, self-guided school tours and a chance for Finley students, teachers and alumni to gather and celebrate Finley's history. We would like to thank all our volunteers and business sponsors who helped make all our 75th Anniversary activities possible. Special thanks to Dave Waldrop Inc. for providing the Finley frisbees and coffee mugs, Steven A. Bagen for helping purchase the Finley balsa wood airplanes, Sonic for providing free slushies, the UF Athletic Association for bringing Albert & Alberta and KISS 105 for providing music for the celebration in April. Whether you’re a former student, former teacher, family member, current teacher or student, we encourage you to submit old photos and your favorite stories about your experience at J.J. Finley. This website will serve as a digital memory book to chronicle seven and a half decades of educational excellence. Please share what J.J. Finley has meant and still means to you.
