    The Shady Point School, located on the northeastern edge of the community of Shady Point in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, was built in 1936 as a Works Progress Administration project. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]

    It was built to a standard design of the Oklahoma State Department of Education, from its pattern book.[2]

    It is a one-story 75 by 44 feet (23 m × 13 m) building built of cut and roughly coursed sandstone, with hipped roof.[2]

    It was one of 48 buildings and 11 structures reviewed in a 1985 study of WPA works in southeastern Oklahoma, which led to almost all of them being listed on the National Register in 1988.[3]
