Description
A large allocation of WPA funds for school construction and improvement projects was issued for the state of Montana in late 1938. Among the construction provided for was a new school building in Babb, Montana.
The location and status of this structure is unknown to Living New Deal, though it is known that the current school in Babb is not housed in it.
The allocation for the structure appears on Montana WPA Roll 25 under project number 665-91-2-52.
