Comments: IRVING SCHOOL, DUNCAN, OK, WAS ORIGINALLY A TWO STORY BUILDING. OF THE WPA GRADESCHOOLS (IRVING, LEE, EMERSON), IRVING IS THE ONLY JONE USING THE ORIGINAL BUILDING, THE OTHERS WERE RAZED IN THE MIDDLE 60'S WHEN NEW BUILDINGS WERE BUILT. IN 1966, RENOVATION WAS IN FULL FORCE - 2ND STORY TAKEN OFF, THE FRONT SECTION BETWEEN THE TWO WINGS WAS CONSTRUCTED - SINCE THEN WINDOWS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, CEILINGS LOWERED AND NEW BUILDINGS (CLASSROOMS, AUDITORIUM) BUILT. THE TREES AND PIPE RAILING HAVE BEEN REMOVED (LATE 70'S EARLY 80'S?)
