The school is a two-wing building on a T-shaped floor plan with central entrance. The front wing houses classrooms oriented to the courtyard while the gym is located in the rear wing. The school features simple functionalist shapes. Entry is enlivened with a circular window and horizontal cornices. Otherwise, the front facade displays only corridor strip windows. The other facades have large windows with harmonious mullion segmentation typical for the architect.
