Built in 1914, it is a prominent local example of Colonial Revival architecture, and of a period grade school.

The building continues to serve its original purpose, now called the Woodbury Elementary School, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.

It is a two-story wood-frame building, with a hip roof and exterior of wooden shingles and clapboards.

The main entrance, centered on the long side, is sheltered by a broad gable-roofed hood, supported by plain triangular brackets; its gable and eave have similar exposed rafter ends.

It has bands of sash windows, a characteristic of period schools mandated by state standards.
