  Hoffman Elementary School is a historic former elementary school in the Evanston neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio.
  
  The building was designed by the firm of noted architect Samuel Hannaford. It was constructed in 1922. Around 2012, Cincinnati Public Schools planned to tear it down, but instead sold it at auction to a single individual, who donated it to the Christ Temple Baptist Church. In 2023, the church hoped to sell the building to a real estate developer who wanted to demolish the building and construct apartments on the site. The Cincinnati Preservation Association responded with an application to list the building as a Cincinnati Local Historic Landmark. The application was approved by the Historic Conservation Board in May 2023, and will face approval from the Cincinnati Planning Commission and Cincinnati City Council before listing.
  
  The school building was determined to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places in 1977, 1998, and 2019. In 1978, the Cincinnati Historic Resource Survey also listed the school as a property that "greatly contributes to the historic and/or architectural quality of the City of Cincinnati".
