The Lone Star School was a historic one-room schoolhouse building in rural eastern Arkansas, United States. It was located southeast of Bald Knob, near the junction of Lone Star and Stokes Roads. It was a single story wood-frame structure, with a gable roof, novelty siding, and a foundation of brick piers. It had an interior brick chimney, and its classroom was finished in beaded wooden boards. Built in the 1920s, it was a rare example of a period rural schoolhouse in the county.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1] It has been listed as destroyed in the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program database.
