General Overview of Addie Lewis School

The Lewis School is one of a couple of schools in Okaloosa County which combines elementary and other grades into a larger school to serve the community. The school serves students in elementary school in the Valparaiso area and serves students from Niceville, Valparaiso and Eglin Air Force Base for middle school. 

Valparaiso Elementary School and the Addie Lewis School merged together at the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year at the campus on Mississippi Ave, within a stone’s throw of the Eglin Air Force Base East Gate. 

The School was named for Addie Lewis, a teacher and administrator in Okaloosa County who served the community for about half a century. Lewis was the first woman in Okaloosa County’s School District who attained a senior management rank in the system. She retired as the assistant superintendent for instruction.

Lewis lived to be 100 years old and died in 2001.
