Springfield Elementary School

Location Information
Use: Education
Owner: Superintendent Chalmers, Principal Skinner

Springfield Elementary School is the school which Bart Simpson, Lisa Simpson and their fellow students attend. The schools mascot is a puma.[1][2]

Profile

Springfield Elementary is around two stories high, and contains a Gym and a Cafeteria. The basement includes a steam tunnel. The floorplan is identical to that of West Springfield Elementary School.

There is a field trip memorial that shows the names of the students who never came back from a field trip. [3]

Condition

Springfield Elementary is heavily underfunded. With almost constant reductions in the budget the school has been forced to use rather bizarre methods to make up for the lack of funding.

A Classroom in Springfield Elementary

It has been stated many times that the school is filled with asbestos. Underfunding of the school has resulted in a variety of troubling scenarios for students and staff. Sub-standard facilities abound, including a cinder block having replaced the school's tether ball, cafeteria food made from circus animals, shredded newspaper, and old gym mats (only the teachers eat french fries made from potatoes), among others. It was revealed that Springfield Elementary was at one time voted "The Most Dilapidated School in Missouri" and was then moved, brick-by-brick, to Springfield [4]. The school is overcrowded because of insufficient funds to build more classrooms. In addition, the teachers are less than average, known for their lack of ability to teach, and are seen smoking and drinking within the school premises.

Once, before, Lisa and Bart started school, it had a swimming pool and Groundskeeper Willie was Swimmteacher Willie

The school was once shown to have a tower with a winding staircase within which led to a fornification area, a feature that has not appeared since [5]. Other short period additions include a disabled ramp access system constructed by local mafia funding. The auditorium was once bulldozed to make way for a mini-mall.

At one time, Groundskeeper Willie accidentally struck oil and the school built a large drilling rig on top of the building. Unfortunately, Mr. Burns took the oil first and Springfield Elementary was made even poorer due to the cost of deconstructing the drill. [6]

Springfield Elementary was partially converted to a prison to support funds. [7]

The school's address is 19 Plympton Street[8].

Behind the Scenes

In the opening credits the school is featured with Bart writing lines on a blackboard. The school's design and apparent floorplan is identical to Chapman Elementary School in Portland, Oregon.

Name of South Carolina school

In 1994, the naming of a new elementary school in Greenwood, S.C. was left up to the students, and the name Springfield Elementary was chosen. The school board was unaware of the connection to The Simpsons until a protest by one group of parents. The name stood for the school, which opened in August 1994 [1].[9]
