A large allocation of WPA funds for school construction and improvement projects for the state of Montana was issued in late 1938. The allocation included funding for school building improvements in Red Lodge, Montana.

It is likely that the building in question makes up part of what is presently known as Roosevelt Junior High School.

The allocation for the structure appears on Montana WPA Roll 25 under project number 665-91-2-49.
