| 20.Description of Significance |
AS A WPA STRUCTURE IN NORTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA, THE OAKVIEW SCHOOL IS MOST UNIQUE IN THAT IT EMPLOYS NATIVE STONE AS A CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL. MOREOVER, IT IS ONE OF THE FEW WPA-CONSTRUCTED, TWO-ROOM SCHOOL BUILDINGS REMAINING IN THE NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES. FINALLY, CONVERSION OF THE SCHOOL INTO A PRIVATE HOME DEMONSTRATES HOW SUITABLE WPA BUILDINGS ARE FOR ADAPTIVE REUSE. |

| 44.Description of Resource |
THE OAKVIEW SCHOOL IS A SINGLE-STORY, RECTANGULAR (45' X 30') STRUCTURE CONSTRUCTED OF RUSTICATED NATIVE STONE LAID IN A RANDOM COURSED PATTERN. THE GABLE ROOF HAS AN INTERIOR CHIMNEY AND A CROSS GABLE THAT FORMS A PORCH SUPPORTED BY FOUR WOOD COLUMNS OVER THE RECESSED FRONT ENTRY. DESPITE RENOVATION INTO A PRIVATE RESIDENCE THAT ENCLOSED THE REAR WINDOWS WITH WOOD INSERTS, THE SCHOOLHOUSE RETAINS MUCH OF ITS ARCHITECTURAL INTEGRITY. |
