Flowertown Elementary School (FES) was built in 1979 as a K-2 school that fed into Newington (right next door), which housed grades 3-5. In 1997, all elementary schools in Dorchester District Two went to a K-5 grade configuration. FES was built to conserve energy –which is why there are no windows and a sleek design. Each classroom surrounds a “pod”, which creates a cozy atmosphere for learning. Today our "pods" are used as hands-on learning spaces like a grocery store, construction zone, and nature center. We have just over 800 "busy bees" in our hive. We have approximately 115 staff members.
