South School is a Beaux-Arts school building located at 362 South Main Street in Torrington, Connecticut, designed by New York City architect Wilson Potter and completed in 1915. Recognized as a well-preserved example of Potter's prolific work designing schools throughout the Northeastern United States, the building served as a prototype for other schools constructed in Torrington. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986, South School was later renovated for residential use and operated as garden view apartments as of 2010.
