This school closed in 1877 and the building was leased to the state for use as part of the normal college (now USM) that had been built around it. The facade features an elaborate entry porch supported by four Doric columns and topped by a railing.

Union, Maine, was settled between 1772 and 1776 and incorporated in 1786. Like many inland towns in the region, the population steadily grew after the Revolutionary War and into the early decades of the nineteenth century as people moved to the rural areas of Maine for the opportunity to build homesteads and establish livelihoods. The Common in Union is a town-owned green space that became a community space. The first record of the Common dates to 1790, but the land was not deeded to the town until 1809.
