Description
The school is a classic, surprising art deco building in a town of 220 people presently. Although it could use some sandblasting and paint, the building is a great example of art deco architecture by Ludwig Abt who was an architect in nearby Moberly and who designed their Municipal Auditorium.
Source notes
A WPA plaque with information about the project is attached to the building.
