The Locke School is a historic school building at 88 Park Avenue in Arlington, Massachusetts. The two-story brick building was built in 1899 to a design by Gay & Proctor. Shaped like an H, it has a hip roof and Renaissance Revival styling. It was built in the site of an older wood-frame school (built 1878), which was moved and used by the railroad until it was demolished about 1936. In 1984 this building was converted into condominiums.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
