Walnut Green School, also known as District School Number 25, is a historic one-room school building located at Greenville, New Castle County, Delaware. It is a one-story, five-bay, rectangular, gambrel-roofed, white-stuccoed stone building in the Colonial Revival style. The school building dates to the late-18th century, but was expanded and remodeled in 1919-1924. The school closed in 1947, after which it housed a store and about 1990, converted to a residence.[2] In 2012 Rukket Sports took over the lease for use as its corporate headquarters.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1]
