A campus built in the shape of a tobacco barn.
Fu'an Elementary School was established on September 1, 1953, taking in transferred students in grades one through five. Its Dongmen branch campus was established in 1962. What sets Fu'an apart today is its architecture: the school's campus buildings are styled after traditional Hakka tobacco-curing barns (菸樓), directly commemorating a form of construction that was once central to Meinong's tobacco-farming economy.
福安國小於民國42年（1953年）9月1日設校，接收一至五年級轉入學生，其東門分校則於1962年設立。福安國小的特色在於建築設計——校園建物採傳統客家「菸樓造型」，直接向曾是美濃菸葉經濟核心的菸樓建築致敬。
