Moffett's Creek Schoolhouse is a historic public school building located near Newport, Augusta County, Virginia. It was built in 1873, as a two-room, frame schoolhouse. It sits on a fieldstone foundation and has a gable roof. An addition was built in the 1880s, creating an "L"-shaped plan. The school closed in 1923, and the property was sold to the Mt. Herman Lutheran Church.

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