It served the village's education needs for over fifty years, including the children of Roseville's art pottery workers. The form is rated as locally significant.","narrative":"Roseville High School is an H-shaped brick school completed in 1914 at Stokeley and Perry Streets in Roseville, Ohio. Built of ironspot brick on a brick foundation with a beveled stone water table, it has a recessed center entrance bay, stone trim, and subdued decorative brick and stonework on the east and west bays. A truncated hip roof of locally produced red tile covers the building, with four pierced chimneys and the remaining frame of a bell tower. Inside, the plan is largely original, with four rooms per floor, oak flooring, and a basement gymnasium. Zanesville contractors built it during a period of growth in the village, when Roseville was known for art pottery, and it educated many pottery workers and their children. It later served as an elementary school until 1970. A non-profit group now seeks funding to convert it into a day care and community center.","period_of_significance":"1900-","architect_builder":"C.W.
