The school was designed by Van Leyen & Schilling and built for $40,000 in 1914. The 1930 additions were also designed by Van Leyen & Schilling.[2] in what was then Greenfield Township, which in 1916 was annexed by the city of Detroit.[3]

An addition for early childhood learning was built in 2002.[4]

As of 2011, the school is used by the Detroit Public Schools for elementary and middle school students. The school serves Chaldean Town.[5][6]
