Designed in 1876 by architect C. M. Bennett in the Second Empire style of architecture, it originally held over 1000 students in grades 1 though 9 divided into three departments: primary (grades 1 though 4); second grammar (grades 5 though 7) and high school (grades 8 and 9). Grades 10 through 12 were added by 1909. It graduated its last class in 1936, after which its students were moved to a new school built by the Works Progress Administration. The building then fell into disrepair and remained closed until 1986 when it was reopened as the Historic Fourth Ward School Museum.[2][3] The museum features exhibits of city history, 19th century education, Mark Twain’s life, area mining and a letter printing press. The Fourth Ward School is a contributing property in the Virginia City Historic District which was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1961 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. {{Commons category|Fourth Ward School (Virginia City, Nevada)}}References1. ^{{NRISref|2008a}} 2. ^Historic Fourth Ward School website 3. ^Historic Fourth Ward School history External links
