The U.M. Rose School is a historic school building at the corner of Izard and West 13th Streets, on the campus of Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Arkansas. A two-story U-shaped Colonial Revival brick building, it was built in 1915 to a design by Arkansas architect Charles L. Thompson, and served the city as a primary school for many years. It is now known as the James M. Cox Administration Building, and houses the college's administrative offices.

The school is named after Uriah Milton Rose.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
