Storängens skola is a Swedish-language primary school in the Espoonlahti suburb in southwestern Espoo, Finland. The building was completed in 2012 and was designed by the architectural firm Playa Architects.

The building is adapted to the shape of the terrain, so it's floor count varies from one in the south wing to three in the north wing. There's a daycare center in the south wing, a primary school in the north wing and a courtyard between them. The walls of the building are white tiled, except for the side of the front yard, where the facade consists of wooden columns and large windows. Pillars accentuate the undulating eaves line and provide protection from the sun. The front yard faces south-southwest. The interior of the building is restrained.

Soukanväylä road runs on the eastern side of Storängens skolan. Between the road and the school, there's a little park called Rehtorinpuisto. In 2020 a stone-lined artificial lake was built between Espoonlahdentie and the northwest side of the school building.

Storängens skola is part of the Espoonlahti Sports Park complex, which includes sports facilities and educational institutions such as Espoonlahden lukio. Former Storängens skolan is located on the western side of the sports park

Storängens skola is located within walking distance from Soukka and Espoonlahti metro stations.
