They are the Dell Academy Building, the Principal's House, the greatly reduced and altered Girls Club/Dormitory (1902, 1908), the Carlton-Alderman House (1902), and the Beach-Alderman House (1902-1903). The Dell Academy Building was built in 1908, and is a two-story, Colonial Revival style brick building measuring 100 feet wide and 70 feet deep. The Principal's House was built in 1903, and is a two-story, three-bay-by-two-bay, Queen Anne style frame dwelling. The Dell School opened in 1902, was a part of the state system of Baptist secondary schools from 1909 until 1922; it closed in 1923.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
