Its east front has a long row of nine-over-nine windows on either side of an entry pavilion with Italian Renaissance Revival details, including fluted pilasters, Corinthian columns, an arch and stone date panels. Orange and cream brick form simple geometric patterns across the exterior. Steinman, Steinman & Golemon of Beaumont designed it, and Herman Weber Construction Company built it with federal public works funds. Classroom wings were added in 1936, giving the building its E-shaped plan. The school served students from several communities that merged into the Warren district, and its auditorium hosted school and community programs. The district stopped using it for classes in 1988, and it now holds stored furniture and materials. The building is recognized for its role in local education and for its architecture. Community members are raising funds to turn part of it into a community center.","period_of_significance":"1935-1958","architect_builder":"Steinman, Steinman & Golemon/Herman Weber Construction Co.","architectural_style":"Late 19th and 20th Century Revivals: Italian Renaissance","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Vacant and not in use as a school since 1988; used for school district storage.
