About Featherstone Elementary School

In December 1961, Featherstone opened its doors to grades one through seven. The mascot was Chief Featherstone and students organized a student council, safety patrol, and a school choir. The PTA taught ballet classes and held a yearly carnival and parade through the neighborhoods complete with teachers' cars decorated for the event.

What Makes Featherstone Elementary School Unique?

Featherstone is a community school where our hearts, hands, and minds are shaping the future.

  • Hearts - the self-esteem and pride each child brings to the learning process.
  • Hands - the hard work and active participation of both students and teachers in the learning process.
  • Minds - the acquisition and utilization of knowledge as children prepare for the future. This is the credo we share as a community of learners.
