Chase City High School, now known as Maple Manor Apartments, is a historic high school complex located at Chase City, Mecklenburg County, Virginia. The school building was built in 1908 and expanded in 1917. It consists of two two-story, brick Colonial Revival-style buildings connected by a one-story connector building built in 1960. Also on the property is a contributing two-story, rectangular, brick building constructed in 1917 for vocational agriculture classes. A one-story, concrete block addition to the building was constructed about 1939. The school closed in 1980, and in 1991 the complex was sensitively rehabilitated for use as apartments for the elderly. ^[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. ^[1]
