Olean School No. 10, now known as Ivers J. Norton School, is a historic school building in Olean, Cattaraugus County, New York, designed and constructed in 1908–1909 in the Prairie School style. The three-story structure, nine bays wide and four bays deep, is built of brick and stone topped with a flat roof featuring deep overhangs characteristic of the Prairie School movement. The front façade displays large brick engaged columns and separate "Boys" and "Girls" entrances. The building served as an active school until 2012, when budget cuts prompted its closure, and was subsequently converted into a church in late 2014. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
