Churchill Public School (Cheyenne, Wyoming)


The Churchill Public School, also known as Churchill Elementary School, is a historic school located at 510 West 29th Street in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Built in 1911, it is the oldest surviving public school in Cheyenne. The school is named for James Otis Churchill, Cheyenne's Superintendent of Schools for nearly two decades. Prominent Cheyenne architect William Dubois gave the school a Prairie design with an American Foursquare plan; the school was the first of several designed by Dubois in Cheyenne. The two-story brick building features a stepped parapet along its flat roof.
The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
