Moberly Junior High School is a historic school building located at Moberly, Randolph County, Missouri. The main block was built in 1929, and is a two-story, H-shaped, brick building with simple Art Deco styling. The rear auditorium wing was built in 1917 and was originally an addition to an older school that burned. The building closed in 1997. The auditorium and gymnasium wing was demolished in August 2018.[2]: 5 [3] In 2024, renovations began to turn the school into a senior living community.[4]
The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[1]
