The Tucker School was a three-room schoolhouse built in 1937 as a Works Progress Administration project in a rural area outside of Spiro in LeFlore County, Oklahoma.
Its NRHP nomination notes that itis an excellent example of a three room structure that has been preserved without alteration over the years.
Within the rural community of which it is a part, the building is unique architecturally in terms of type, style, scale, materials and workmanship.
That construction of it also provided work for laborers long on relief rolls, giving them economic security and self esteem, makes it especially significant, as too does the fact that the building provided an impetus for modern education in a rather remote and isolated area.
