Riverside School is a historic school building located at Elkins, Randolph County, West Virginia, United States. It was built between 1902 and 1905, as a one-story, rectangular red brick structure, measuring 56 feet, 6 inches, by 34 feet. A second story was added in 1928, when it became a four-year high school. It has a hipped roof and a sandstone foundation. It was originally built as a school for African American students, and remained so until the 1954 desegregation order and the school was closed.[1]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.
