Over a century under many names.
Fuyuan Elementary was established in 1914 under Japanese rule as "Bazai Public School," and has carried several different names through both the colonial period and the postwar decades since. Located in Ruisui Township, it shares its "Fuyuan" name with the separate Fuyuan Junior High School in neighboring Guangfu Township — the two are distinct institutions in different townships, though both draw on the broader Fuyuan community that straddles the border between them.
富源國小創立於日治時期大正3年（1914年），原名「馬佐公學校」，此後歷經日治時期與戰後多次更名，位於瑞穗鄉。學校名稱「富源」與鄰近光復鄉的富源國中相同，但兩者是位於不同鄉鎮的獨立學校——兩校皆服務橫跨兩鄉邊界的「富源」地區社區。
