Turkey Creek School
Turkey Creek School is a former school building located along Arkansas Highway 9 in Stone County, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood frame structure, with a metal gable roof, weatherboard siding, and a stone foundation. The north facade has a symmetrical pair of entrances with simple trim, and the sides have five sash windows. Although it was built in 1925, the school resembles much older rural schoolhouses. It was used as a school until 1949, and now serves as a local community building.[2]
