Located in Mecca, Indiana, Wabash Township Graded School is a historic Richardsonian Romanesque structure built in 1901 and expanded in 1910. The two-story red brick building stands on a raised basement with limestone trim and a hipped roof, featuring a distinctive bell tower above the main entrance. A gymnasium was added in 1923. The school operated until 1986 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987, though it sustained serious damage from a fire in 2022.
