Kelly View School is a historic one-room school located at Appalachia, Wise County, Virginia. It likely dates to the 1890s, and is a small, one-story, one room frame building with a front gable roof. It sits on a poured concrete foundation and is sheathed in weatherboard. It remained in use as a school until 1959 or 1960, after which it was used as a place of worship, called Kelly View Church.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
