The Felton Street School is a historic school building in Hudson, Massachusetts. This 2-1/2 story brick and pressed stone structure was built in 1882, and served as the town's high school until 1957. It was enlarged from four to eight classrooms in 1901. The main facade has a projecting three-story gabled pavilion, with large brackets at the roof corners and applied Stick style decoration in the gable. The main entrance, set in this pavilion is sheltered by a portico supported by similar large brackets. The cornice has detailed brick corbelling, and the building's chimneys have Queen Anne style ornamentation.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
