NOTES
Additional Information:Another map code for this building is WT 19/4, found on the DOT West Bend map.

This two story Gothic Revival school features a rectangular shaped plan configuration, a stone foundation, a brick exterior, a brick and wood trim and an asphalt shingled gable roof. This gable roof is distinguished by a steep pitch and bracketed overhanging eaves. Brick corbelling appears at the cornice line. The windows on the front of the building have pointed arches and flat arches with dripstone lintels. A single round window with four keystones is visible at the front in the attic story. Stilted and segmental arch lintels appear on the side elevation. The building, which is in fair condition, has experienced alterations from its original design.

This former school now functions as a place of retail and as apartments.
