The Montgomery Street School, located at 2500-2506 Montgomery Street, Louisville, Kentucky, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1852, and once used as a Civil War hospital, it has been a school since 1869. It has since been expanded and renovated.

It was formerly the Emma Dolfinger School, a public elementary school. It is currently owned and used by Portland Christian School as an elementary school, but Portland Christian has announced it is selling the building after the 2007-2008 school year. It will then consolidate the elementary school into its Portland Ave. campus one block to the south.
