"The school building is of richly ornamented and pilastered brick work built in 1874/Ln what was then known as the French Style. It is two stories in height in addition to the basement and roof stories and is surmounted by a slated mansard roof. The Plan is that of a Greek cross, the arms being 88 feet long and 32 feet wide with towers 18 feet square at the northeast and southwest angles. It contains eight school rooms, utilities in the basement and an area in the attic originally designed as a combination gym-auditorium."(Submitted on July 27, 2026, by Trudi Jacobson of Slingerlands, New York.)
