[edit] Building and history

The neo-classical school building was designed by Ohio Stadium architect Howard Dwight Smith and completed in 1924.[2] It served as the first permanent school in Upper Arlington, serving grades 1-6; grades 7-12 were added to the building following its 1926 expansion. The building was renamed Upper Arlington High School in 1939 with the opening of another Smith-designed school, Barrington Road Elementary School.
