The Boswell School, now the Boswell Baptist Church, is a historic school building in rural western Izard County, Arkansas. It is located in the hamlet of Boswell, at the end of County Road 196. It is a single-story fieldstone structure, with a side gable roof and a projecting front-gable entry porch. The school was built in 1934 with funding from the Works Progress Administration, and was used as a local public school until 1950, when the local school district was consolidated with that of Calico Rock. The building was then converted to a church.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
