Central High School is a historic high school building located near Painter, Accomack County, Virginia. It was built in 1932, with an addition in 1935, and is a two-story, "T"-shaped, brick building with brick and stone detailing in the Art Deco style. The 1935 addition was funded by the Public Works Administration. The building served as a high school until 1984, when it was converted to a middle school. Also on the property are a contributing one-story wood-frame double classroom building, one-story vocational school building, and a one-story Colonial Revival style dwelling that served as the home economics building.[3]
