Sydenstricker School

Sydenstricker School, also known as Pohick School #8 and Upper Pohick Community League Hall (since 1948), is a historic one-room school located at Springfield, Fairfax County, Virginia. It was built in 1928, and is a one-story, front-gabled structure, covered in weatherboard, painted red with white trim, and topped with a metal roof. Also on the property are a contributing combination storage shed and three-hole privy, the original privy pit, and a large metal flag pole, donated in 1928.

The school building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012. In 2017 it was commemorated with a historic marker erected on the premises by the Fairfax County Historical Commission.
