The Block School is located at the intersection of County Road "K" and North Water Road in the Township of St. Lawrence about one and a half miles east of Ogdensburg, WI. The district was officially known as Joint District No 5.
Block School is a brick-covered wood structure aligned east and west with three windows on each side. The total cost of the school building was $975. The attractive cream brick school has two windows on the east end and two windows beside the double-arched door on the front end. The basement was placed under the school in 1904 and the floor was eventually cemented in 1915.
The school was closed in 1963. The school building was eventually sold and is now a residence.
