History

It is a large Classical Revival building, three stories in height, built out of brick and stone. It was built in 1926 and enlarged in 1939 to a design by William T. Nolan, and is the parish's only example of Classical Revival design. It served as a high school until 1966, and as a middle school thereafter until 1990. [3] [2]

The building has since been converted to housing for senior citizens as the "School Days Apartments".
