W. E. Putnam Middle Magnet School is a middle school in the Birmingham City Schools system located at 1757 Montclair Road in the Eastwood neighborhood. It was constructed in 1961 as an elementary school with 13 classrooms, an office and a cafeteria. Shortly after his death in 1962 the school was renamed for former Birmingham Board of Education research director W. E. Putnam. It was converted into a middle school in 1980. The principal is Michael Scott.

Under the most recent school consolidation plan proposed by acting superintendent Barbara Allen and approved by the Board, Putnam Middle would accommodate additional students transferring from a Kirby Middle School in 2009. [1]
