Ardscoil Éanna was a co-educational secondary school in Crumlin, Dublin, Ireland. It was established in 1939 by James J. O’Byrne, who had been interned in Frongoch in Wales for his role in the Easter Rising in 1916, and Margaret Pearse, sister of Patrick Pearse, who had founded Scoil Éanna (St Enda's) in Ranelagh in 1908.

It moved to its site, Franshaw House, in the early 1940s.[http://www.herald.ie/entertainment/around-town/old-boy-gabriels-starring-role-in-city-school-reunion-2203897.html Old boy Gabriel's starring role in city school reunion]. herald.ie; accessed 11 August 2017. It was the oldest school in the Crumlin area and one of only fifteen schools in Ireland under lay Catholic control. The last principal, Étaín Ní Mhórdha, was a granddaughter of the founder, while the Board of Management was chaired by his daughter and the school owner, Reiltín Ní Bhroin, then sister Eibhlín Ní Bhroin.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}}
