The Baker Public School is a pair of historic school buildings at 100 West Baker Street in Richmond, Virginia. It consists of a small Colonial Revival brick annex completed in 1913 and a larger 1939 Art Deco building of limestone and brick. The Art Deco building is arrow-shaped, with its main entrance set at an angle toward the corner of West Charity and St. Paul Streets. The school served the African-American neighborhood of Jackson Ward until 1979 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.
