Webster School

Frederic J. DeLongchamps, a Reno, Nevada-born designer and engineer of mining who was born on June 2, 1882, and educated in Nevada, designed 500 buildings including schools, courthouses, commercial structures, and residences. The new Webster School building was constructed in 1929 with wood-frame walls and stone work built around them. Its stone is rhyolite tuff quarried from Silver Mountain City. The building served as a school for grades 1 through 8 until 1950, and afterward was used as a community hall, justice court, museum, county health department, and county library.
