The Immanuel High School is a historic school building in rural Arkansas County, Arkansas. It is located at 68 Immanuel Road, about 0.5 miles (0.80 km) east of Arkansas Highway 33, east of Almyra. It is a single-story wood-frame structure in a U shape, covered in siding, with a cross-gable roof. Built c. 1940, it is the only surviving element of the Immanuel Industrial Institute, a larger complex of buildings built to educate the local African-American population. The complex was merged into a regional school district in 1950, and was closed in 1966. It was used for a variety of other private and non-profit educational purposes afterward, but has been vacant since the mid-1990s.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
