The Jerome Elementary School No. 22 is a historic school building on North Louisiana Boulevard in Jerome, Arkansas. The single story brick building was constructed in 1930, at a time when Jerome was a thriving logging and farming town. It was used as a school until 1950, when Jerome's schools were consolidated with nearby Dermott. It sat vacant and deteriorating until it was sold in 1970 to a citizens' group, which rehabilitated the building for other civic purposes. [2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. [1]
