The format of this two-story brick building is characteristic of the designs for school buildings that one encounters across the country. In this example, however, the Prairie tradition was carried into the 1920s in a somewhat abstract manner. The two front entrances are contained within pavilions that project from the body of the building. These pavilions each have a pair of Prairie-style pilasters with capping and horizontal banding in brick. Between these pilasters, on the wall below the parapet, is a rectangle of vertical lines formed of projecting and receding bricks. The lines can be read as a pattern as well as an abbreviated assertion of small, stylized pilasters. A similar but larger pattern is repeated toward each end of the main building.
