The Dill School is a historic school building in rural Cleburne County, Arkansas. It is located a short way north of the village of Ida, on the west side of Arkansas Highway 5/25. It is a single story stone structure, with a broad hipped roof and four "eyebrow dormers". It has a pair of entrances sheltered by an arched projection that extends above the roof line. The northern support column of the portico is marked by a stone indicating the year of construction (1938), and that it was built with funding from the National Youth Administration. The building was used as a school until 1948, when its student population was consolidated into adjacent school districts. It has since seen a variety of other uses.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1]
