Exterior view of the public school, a two-story brick building in a rural area with small bell tower on the roof above the entrance. There is a flagpole on the side of the roofed porch over the entrance. A sign between two windows on the second floor reads: "Joint Dist No 1." The school yard has long, unmowed grass, and there are fields and trees in the background.
