The former Upper Elementary School is located in the central village of Goffstown, at the junction of School and Reed Streets. It is a three-story brick structure, laid out in a U shape with a relatively narrow opening to the north, with a flat roof. Stylistically it is a simplified version of the Collegiate Gothic, with windows set in openings that have stone sills and lintels, sometimes set in groups. The main entrance is in a south-facing projecting section, with a three-bay opening now housing only a single entrance in the center bay. The outside of the frame has stone quoining, and each bay is topped by a shouldered stone moulding. A stone cornice separates the entrance from the second floor, where a central window repeats the stone quoining, and is topped by a keystoned lintel. [4]
The school was built in 1925 at a cost of $20,000, and was the town's first purpose-built high school, housing grades 5 through 12.

Grades 5 and 6 were moved to the adjacent White School in 1936, and the school was converted to an elementary school after the new high school opened in 1965. It was closed in 1991, and was subsequently converted into senior housing. [4]
