It was built about 1912, and is a two-story, brick Neo-Classical school building with a central tetrastyle portico and flanking pavilions. The central portico has four colossal Tuscan order columns. An auditorium is located at the rear of the building. Wing additions were added about 1945. It was the town’s first public school, housing grades 1–11.
