History and architectural features

Built between 1900 and 1901, this historic structure is a three-and-one-half-story building, that was made using coursed, cast stone ashlar and has a low hipped roof, large double hung windows, and brick additions that were built in 1915 and 1924. The projecting central entrance pavilion has a Renaissance Revival-style portico.

It was among the first schools designed by J. Horace Cook after his appointment as supervising architect for the school board.[2] The school was named for merchant Rudolph Walton (1826–1900).[3]

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] The school has been abandoned since 2003 despite attempts to re-open as a charter school.[4]
