The Grove Street School is a historic school building at 23 Grove Street in Spencer, Massachusetts. The 2+1⁄2-story brick building was built in two phases: in the first phase in 1876, a single story was built. It was full to overflowing by 1878, and in 1883 the second story was built, designed by Fuller & Delano. It is a T-shaped building, whose main body is a horizontal rectangle, with a projecting central pavilion. The three roof gable ends are jerkin-headed, and are decorated with bargeboard and heavy brackets.[2]
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1996,[1] and was included in the 2003 expansion of the Spencer Town Center Historic District.[3]
