Description:

The Oakdale Public School, located at the intersection of Hastings Avenue and Noblestown Road in Oakdale, Pennsylvania, USA, was constructed in 1894 in the Romanesque Revival architectural style. Recognized for its historical significance, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 28, 1997.

Initially known as the Hastings School, this educational institution provided instruction to students ranging from grades one to eight and was the sole grade school in Oakdale until its closure in 1972. Following its closure, the building remained vacant for several years, at least until 1997. Subsequently, in 2001, the structure underwent renovation to be repurposed into an apartment building.
