Site 7: Long Elementary School
on the
St. Louis Sundial Trail
Long Elementary School is located at 9021 Sappington Road in the St. Louis suburb of Crestwood, MO. Located at the school is an analemmatic sundial that is about 18.5 feet in diameter. It is built of colored concrete. It is located on the grounds of a private elementary school in an area designated as a Sundial Garden. The dial is surrounded by elevated flower planter boxes. The E-W markers are 10 feet apart and the date line is marked. The dial face shows the cardinal directions and phases of the moon. This is not a public sundial; viewing can be arranged by contacting Long Elementary School at 314-729-2400.*
