Mt. Zion Schoolhouse was a historic public school building located at Mount Solon, Augusta County, Virginia. Built in 1876, it was a two-room, rectangular frame building topped by a gable roof. It was moved from its original location to a site near Mt. Zion Church before 1915. The schoolhouse was sold in 1948, and remodeled into two apartments.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
