It is Hinsdale County's only surviving one-room schoolhouse. It was deemed significant for its architecture: its exterior walls are built of rock face ornamental concrete blocks, one of three identified schools in the state using that construction.[2] It was named for socialist labor leader Eugene Debs. It served as a school from 1926 to 1951; it also served as a meeting hall.[3]
