The Wylie School is a historic school building at Ekonk Hill Road and Wylie School Road in Voluntown, Connecticut. It is a small single-story wood frame structure with a gable roof. Its main facade has two matching entrances, framed by simple molding and topped by a cornice. The interior has two vestibules with closets between them, leading into a single large schoolroom with a raised section at the back. The property includes a period privy.
