Building History
Chambers Prairie Elementary was built in 2009 on 13.1 acres, using local bond and state assistance funding. It is located at 6501 Virginia Street SE in Lacey. The 57,373 square foot building includes 31 instructional spaces, plus portable classrooms.
The school was named after the Chambers Family, one of the first settlers in the area in the late 1840s. The homesteads of Andrew, Jackson, John, and Thomas Chambers covered the area where Chambers Prairie Elementary is now located.
