The Wiley Rock Schoolhouse, at 603 Main St. in Wiley, Colorado, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]

It was built in 1938 as a Works Progress Administration project.[2]

It served as an annex to the high school and included space for agriculture classes, for a blacksmith shop, and a music room.[2]

It is 70 by 70 feet (21 m × 21 m) in plan, and was built of heavy gray rock reclaimed from two buildings that the school purchased for the purpose.[2]
