Strathcona Elementary School was named for its location along Strathcona Road.
We do not know how Strathcona Road was named, but records show that it is a very early road located in Fairfield Island. The road is not known to have been named after a particular family in the area, so some believe that it was named after the British town of the same name.
Community: Fairfield Island
