==Construction==
The school building was constructed in two phases. The original building was a five bay, two and half story structure topped with an octagonal belfry (since converted into a closed cupola).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory: Nomination Form )〕 The exterior walls are brick covered in stucco, the result of a trip to Philadelphia by a trustee sent to investigate the possibility.〔〔 An annex was constructed around 1872, also of brick but painted rather than stuccoed.〔 Both the annex and the original portion feature round-headed dormers to light the attic.〔 There are three rooms on each floor and a central hall in the original section. This layout remains unchanged though the interior has been updated considerably over the years to accommodate the various tenants.〔
