The Alexander K. McClure School is a Colonial Revival elementary school in the Hunting Park neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, operated by the School District of Philadelphia. Designed by Henry deCourcy Richards and built in 1910–1911, it is a three-story, five-bay brick building with a raised basement, distinguished by a three-story rounded arched opening above the entrance and a rounded parapet. The school was named for journalist and politician Alexander Kelly McClure, and the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
