Simonsdale Elementary School Simonsdale Elementary School in Portsmouth, Virginia installed an environmentally friendly parking lot when they constructed a new school in 2011. Located at 4841 Clifford Street, Portsmouth, Virginia 23701, which is across the street from City Park. Phone 757-465-2917, Fax 757-465-2918 Permeable pavers allow the stormwater to drain through the openings between the concrete pavers allowing the water to seep back into the ground instead of running into the storm sewer and taking contaminated into the Chesapeake Bay, thereby keeping a cleaner bay today and tomorrow.
