Poplar Ridge School began in 1858 as a one-room log building. The existing late Classical Revival frame building was built circa 1875, and a late Victorian façade was later added. At one time the school enrolled 100 students. It remained active until 1941, when it was consolidated with New Hope High School. The schoolhouse has also served as a community center and voting place.
