[3] The second unit, containing an auditorium, gymnasium, practical arts room, three classrooms and a combination lunch/playroom, was built in 1931.

The third unit planned by McGrath, Dohmen, & Page was never built; however, a temporary building with two self-contained classrooms was installed in 1955, and by 1961, the school was serving 880 students in kindergarten through sixth grade.

The original 1927 unit is a two-story symmetrical orange-brick and random range ashlar, Collegiate Gothic Revival structure five bays wide.
