History

Named after the residential neighbourhood it was constructed in. Thomas Daly (1861-1908) was an early pioneer who started homesteading in the Clover Bar area in 1883. He received worldwide attention after showing the superiority of Alberta-grown oats by winning first prize at the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. He was involved with the Clover Bar school and the Clover Bar municipality and was a member of the Edmonton Exhibition Association. Daly also served on City Council in 1907. The land that the school was constructed on was formerly an apple orchard on which Thomas Daly resided. Additions were added to the school in 1991 and 1992.
