Victoria High School, a brick Classical Revival structure built in 1922–1923 in Victoria, Lunenburg County, Virginia, exemplifies early twentieth-century educational architecture in its restrained neoclassical design. The one-story building features a raised basement and five bays across its front facade, which is anchored by a pedimented portico with round wooden Doric columns and square pilasters projecting from a central pavilion. Serving as the principal public school for white students from its completion until its closure in 1966, the building is now recognized as a Virginia Historic Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
