Dr. Walter F. Robinson School is a public coeducational primary school located in the U.S. city of Bayonne, New Jersey, run by the Bayonne Board of Education. It was originally opened in 1910 as Bayonne High School, and changed to an elementary school in the late 1930s when the present Bayonne High School was completed. In 1977 it was renamed after a prominent history teacher who became school principal and Assistant Superintendent of Schools and authored a history of the city of Bayonne.
