Public School No. 109, also known as Male and Female Primary School No. 5 and Broadway School, was a historic elementary school located at Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It was a two-story red brick utilitarian building featured a central tower capped by a pediment, two large chimneys with arched openings, and an entrance appendage on the south façade housing a stairwell. It was constructed in 1876 as an "open plan" school with classes separated by glass partitions. It was demolished in late 2003/early 2004 in order to make room for the Kennedy Krieger Institute’s new “Community Behavioral Health Center.”[2]

Public School No. 109 was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
