It retains its original German siding and 6/6 sash windows, although the interior has been significantly altered with the addition of a porch and an exterior chimney. Notably, the school is significant because it existed alongside the nearby Olive School for white students, which was built around the same time with a similar design. Unlike typical segregated... current

The original German siding is covered with brick-patterned composition siding, but the original two-room plan is generally intact, with doors on the north and south elevations. The standing seam roof shows a patch where the cupola once was located. The Olive School is significant in conjunction with the nearby Olive Colored School because the segregated rural schoolhouses were seldom... current

Note the spectators and cars up on the hill. You could just drive in, park and watch a ballgame, as the playing field seemed to sit down in a hole. The field was located on the present site of the BHS football and lacrosse fields.
