History

The main building was constructed in 1924 and expanded in 1938 and 1949. It is a two-story, modified H-shaped Collegiate Gothic style building with a nine-bay main block flanked by two one-bay projecting wings. The Seventy-First School was formed by the consolidation of six schools in the Seventy-First township. It was formed by the consolidation of McPherson, Glendale, Raymount, Kornbow, Westover and Galatia schools. These six schools were staffed by one to three teachers each. The two story brick school originally had 13 classrooms, an auditorium, and a privately managed lunch room. Five classrooms were used for high school work. The first year, the school had an enrollment of 367 pupils. It served as a high school from 1924 until 1962, when it was then converted to an elementary school. The building now serves as a middle school, with the name Seventy-First Classical Middle School.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004 as the Seventy-First Consolidated School. [1] The nomination also includes several contributing buildings: the gymnasium (1951), cafeteria / classroom building (1951–1952), portable classroom (1945), and athletic field (c. 1941). [2]
