The No. 12 School is a historic one-room schoolhouse building in rural Crawford County, Arkansas. It is located on the east side of Freedom Road, a short way north of its road junction with Old 12 Cross Roads about 6 miles (9.7 km) west of Chester. It is a single-story wood vernacular frame structure with a small belfry and two entrances. Its date of construction is not documented, but it was being used as a district school in the late 19th century, a role it fulfilled until the area's district schools were consolidated in 1946. It has since served as a community meeting hall.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
