Fridley's public schools are governed by Fridley Independent School District 14. [[Fridley High School]], Fridley Middle School, Hayes Elementary School, and Stevenson Elementary School comprise the district. In 1978, Fridley closed three elementary schools due to declining enrollment: Gardena, Riverwood, and Parkview.<ref>School Closings: Trends and Prospects - State of Minnesota Department of Education. October 1982 https://www.leg.state.mn.us/docs/pre2003/other/821352.pdf</ref> Riverwood Elementary was demolished and single-family homes were developed. Parkview Elementary became the Fridley Community Center. Gardena Elementary became the Al-Amal School. Rice Creek Elementary closed later and was demolished, with single-family homes developed in its place. After the 1965 tornado, students at Parkview had to double up at the Riverwood school while it was being rebuilt.
