Toms Brook School is a historic school building located at Toms Brook, Shenandoah County, Virginia. It was built in 1935–1936, and it is a two-story, "T"-shaped, red brick Colonial Revival-style school building. It features a monumental portico with tall columns that support the pediment.

The Virginia State Board of Education provided a $25,000 loan for its construction.[3] The community also applied for $31,050 of Works Progress Administration funds for its construction, but the application was not approved.[4] A cafeteria addition for the school was completed in 1952.[5][6]

Toms Brook School was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.[1]
