Domestic Science Building (Arkadelphia, Arkansas)

The Domestic Science Building, located at 11th and Haddock in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, is a historic school building that dates back to 1917. Originally part of the Arkadelphia High School campus, it served as a venue for domestic science courses until the 1980s. Designed by the architectural firm Thompson & Harding, the building showcases a unique blend of Prairie Style and Colonial Revival architecture, featuring a geometric parapet and a columned entrance portico. Although currently unused, it remains under the ownership of the Arkadelphia School District and was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1982, making it a notable site for both tourists and researchers interested in educational history and architectural styles.
