The Ozone School is a historic school building at 14137 Arkansas Highway 21 in Ozone, Arkansas. It is a single-story masonry structure, built out of coursed fieldstone blocks and covered by gable-on-hip roof with exposed rafter ends. Its front entrance is sheltered by a distinctive projecting tower, with arched openings at the base and a transverse gabled roof above. The school was built in 1942 with funding from the Works Progress Administration, and was used as a public school until 1957, when the local district was consolidated with that of Lamar.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
