The statue is a bust of Norman Hawkins Topping. It's located near the center of school, on a granite or concrete monument about 4 feet above the ground. There are two benches next to it to reflect. Below, is a plaque with infamous words Norman Hawkins Topping said.

The plaque says, "'Create a world that is human and sane, where life is precious and neighbors are trusted - a world so improved you can tell your children you did something to elevate rather than lower the human condition.'
