Facing State Highway 58 (S. Carnegie Street) is a pre-WPA school building now called The Memorial Building, which serves as a community center. On the south side of this school, a classroom extension has been added. A change in the color of the brick differentiates where this addition was added. Wndows on the south side of this addition are set in triples. A WPA shield on the southeast corner by the entrance reads 1937-1938.

Perpendicular to the original school building on the east side (rear) is a large gymnasium. The gym has a gabled roof, with a concrete block over the south entrance which has been stamped with the WPA shield and the year 1937. This entrance is recessed and flanked by two five-sided brick pillars. Windows in this portion of the building are covered with metal siding.
