More About Us

The original Bush Elementary was built in 1936, with the new school built in 2005. Bush was named for Asahel Bush, an editor and publisher of the Statesman Journal newspaper during the latter part of the 19th century. Asahel Bush was instrumental in the founding of Bush’s Pasture Park.
