Description
"This little building provides elementary school facilities for the township of Manor, which is an agricultural district lying along the Susquehanna River.
It is one story in height with a partial basement and provides four classrooms. The project included the construction of an approach drive and the landscaping of the site.
The building is nonfireproof. The exterior walls are red brick, the trim, porches, shutters, cupola, and gable sheathing are wood, and the roof is slate. The floors of all rooms are maple and those of the corridors are asphalt tile.
The project was completed in September 1936 at a construction cost of $23,879 and a project cost of $28,533."
