"Hall of Science (1900-1901) This building was designed by Theodore C. Link of St. Louis and constructed by Harley and Moyer of Sedalia. It is a T-shaped, two story Georgian Revival structure with full basement and attic. The building faces north. Its western side is set into a hill resulting in the western' half of the basement being below grade and the eastern half above grade, the north facade has gabled projecting pavilions on either end which are flanked by fluted pilasters with Ionic capitals.

The exterior of the Hall of Science has retained its original appearance with only two minor alterations. In 1973, a small dormer centered on the north facade roof was removed and the original slate roof was replaced with asbestos shingles. Numerous interior changes have occurred to improve the building's suitability for classroom use." ~ Historic District National Register Nomination Form
