Verona School is a historic public school building located at Verona, Augusta County, Virginia. It was built in 1911, as a three-room, frame schoolhouse in the manner of a common I-house design. The school closed by the late 1940s, and around 1956–1957, was moved back from the road and converted to an office and manager's residence for a neighboring motel.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
