Colin Kelly Middle School
The Colin Kelly Junior High School student body was organized in the fall of 1945, with 375 students. The students chose the school's name from a list of heroes, statesman and presidents. They wanted to commemorate a "modern-day hero." Captain Colin Purdie Kelly II, a B-17 bomber pilot, was among the first servicemen to lose his life at the beginning of World War II.
