The Olympia School, also known as the Picture City School, the Hobe Sound White School, the Apollo Street School and now the Apollo School, is an historic two-room elementary school building located at 9141 Southeast Apollo Street in Hobe Sound, Martin County, Florida. On December 20, 2002, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.[1] The school closed in 1963 upon the opening of the Hobe Sound Elementary School on Gomez Avenue. It was constructed in 1924, according to a Martin County Historical Society Marker. [2] The building is in the process of being restored by the Apollo School Foundation, Inc.[3][4][5]
