The WPA project high school was demolished in 1994 to make way for the elementary school in the background.
This memorial made from the bricks of the old school also contain the names of the students who attended the old school. The names are stamped on the top brick of each in each row.. These are not purchased memorial bricks, but part of the memorial itself.
A good view of the old school and associated buildings can be seen in this old You Tube video by Kevin Riley
He writes: "This video clip is of the old high school and junior high building in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. It was taken in 1993 before the building was demolished. Unfortunately, the building was locked and no shots of the inside could be taken. Please forgive the amateur video. It was taken with an old VHS hand-held camera and inept operator"
