The complex was built between 1922 and 1956, and consists of one two-story and five single-story brick buildings. They include a gable front combined Gymnasium/Auditorium (1948); the two-story, 14 teacher, flat-roofed, Colonial Revival-style Rosenwald-funded Harnett County Training School (1922); a detached brick boiler room (1950); two, one-story, flat-roofed Library and Office Building and Cafeteria buildings (1956); and a one-story, flat-roofed Rosenwald-funded classroom annex added in 1927, now designated the Education Building.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
