About the construction

Description
Three story, red brick building on sloping site. Several narrow bands of plain concrete accent all facades. Windows are six panes aligned in pairs. Addition to the north end in 1958.
Date Of Construction
1930
Context
The first Union School was built on the same site in 1868. The first graduating class in 1872 had two students: Beverly Davenport and William Meade. It was a tall, Italianate stucture, and served kindergarten through grade twelve. By the late 1920's, it was becoming outdated and overcrowded, and was replaced in 1930 with the present building. The school district has grown and added many elementary schools since 1930. A new high school was constructed in 1959 on N. Maple. This building is currently being used as an elementary school.
