It was a PWA Moderne-style elementary school, built of locally manufactured yellow bricks. One wing had a parapeted gable roof.[2]

Originally built as a local elementary school, in 1969 the building began to be used for the Cache Instructional Workshop, a vocational school for people with disabilities. Years later the program was moved, and the building was demolished sometime between 1993 and 2002.
