This beautiful Spanish Colonial Revival building was designed by William Henry Weeks and constructed in 1922. This was the only grammar school in the district until 1964. It was used as West Valley College's first campus until 1976. Sold in 1979, the building's façades, including the kindergarten room and sun porch, were preserved and incorporated into the Heritage Village Offices.
