Secondary entrances have terra cotta surrounds with pediments and Palladian style windows above. Blocks terminating wings have dormers.

Non-contributing additions to the east, south and west of the building still permit viewing of the original elevations.

basket-arched opening into a portico, with the arch repeated again above the door to the building proper. Smaller entrances, one on either side, also reflect the arch; above these one-story bays are stone balustrades. Because the building is bu·ilt on a grade that slopes away to the south, the south secondary entrance is reached by a flight of steps additional to those leading to the north entrance. Between the second and third stories above the central entrance is a series of bas-relief figures in glazed terra cotta or tile, depicting a chemist, glass blower, blacksmith, stone cutter, carpenter, person churning, brickmaker, spinner and a printer. Chimneys are tall, with a separate shaft for each flue, with the shafts grouped in stacks each set diagonally to its neighbors. The school faces athletic fields that slope away from the school, giving it an unusual vista for an urban school.
