The Second Union School is a historic Rosenwald school building for African-American children located at 2787 Hadensville Fife Rd. in Goochland, Goochland County, Virginia. It was built in 1918, as a “two-teacher” school. It is a one-story, two-room, weather boarded school with a hipped slate roof. It is set on a foundation of 18 concrete piers. The school closed in 1959, and it was subsequently used for Sunday school and Bible school classes by the neighboring Second Union Church.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[1]
