William Shelly School and Annex, also known as Eberton School, is a historic school building and annex located at West York, York County, Pennsylvania. The building known as Shelly Annex was built about 1897 as a one-room school. It was enlarged twice between 1898 and 1903, to be a 2 1/2-story, gable roofed brick building, three bays wide and seven bays deep. The Shelly School was built between 1905 and 1908, in the Italian Renaissance style. It is a two-story brick building, nine bays wide and seven bays deep. It was completely rebuilt after a fire in 1919. The property was sold in 1960, and the buildings utilized as storage facilities for the next 37 years.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]
