South School is a historic school building at 1009 Summit Avenue in Stoughton, Wisconsin. The school was built in 1900; it is one of five school buildings in Stoughton built between 1886 and 1916, a period of rapid growth for the city. Prominent Madison architect Allan D. Conover designed the school in the Queen Anne style. The school was designed to blend into its residential neighborhood, and its house-like shape and relatively plain exterior minimize its size. Stoughton used the building as an elementary school until 1983, though it was closed between 1943 and 1954 due to budget constraints. The building has since been converted into the South School Condo Association condominiums. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 12, 1985.

West School is a historic school building at 404 Garfield Street in Stoughton, Wisconsin. The school was built in 1886; it was the first of several schools Stoughton built in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to accommodate its rapidly growing population. The two-story brick building has an Italianate design with a segmental arched entrance and matching first-floor windows, semicircular arched windows on the second floor, brick belt courses, and a hipped roof with a wide dormer. As school overcrowding continued to be a problem even after the later construction of the East and South Schools, Stoughton elected to expand the West School in 1905; builder John Holmstad placed a matching addition on the building's west side that gave the school four new classrooms. Stoughton continued to use the school until 1982; it has since been converted to apartments.The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 22, 1992.
