Jackson School, built in 1936, is located in Enid, Garfield County, Oklahoma and listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1989. It is one of three Mission/Spanish Colonial buildings in Enid.[1] The other two are the 1928 Rock Island Depot, also listed on the register, and the Ehly house, constructed in 1929 for local J.C. Penney's manager, Gus Ehly.[2] The building is constructed using buff brick and cast stone decorative molding. It has two arched entry ways with red tile shed roofs, a Greek cross in the upper middle section, and cement staircases. The building encompasses Block 16 of Enid's Southern Heights second addition.[1] Its architect Roy Shaw also designed several other Enid school buildings including Enid High School, Adams, Garfield, Roosevelt, and Longfellow.[3] Jackson school served as an all-white school until Enid's schools integrated in 1959. From 1967 to 1969, Jackson and neighboring George Washington Carver, formerly an all-black school, split grades 1-3 and 4–6, respectively, between the two schools, until both were closed in 1969.[4]
