The Old Lenox High School building is a historic school building at 109 Housatonic Street in Lenox, Massachusetts. The building was constructed in 1908, and housed the town's Lenox Memorial High School until 1966, when a new high school was built. It underwent major renovations and additions in the 1940s and 1960s. The building was then used as school facilities for grades 4 through 6 until the 1970s, when (known as the Cameron School) it began to serve grades 2 through 5. The school was closed in 1998.[2]

After three years of vacancy, the building was repurposed for use as an assisted living facility.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]
