John D. Bassett High School
John D. Bassett High School, Historic school building in Bassett, Virginia.
The two-story brick building incorporates Flemish-bond brickwork, corner quoins, slate shingles, and octagonal cupolas atop three-bay portico entrances at each end.
Built between 1947 and 1948, the school operated as a high school until 1979, when it transitioned to a middle school before closing permanently in 2004.
The building design integrates Georgian and Georgian Revival architecture, reflecting post-World War II educational construction methods in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
The facility now functions as a multi-purpose center, containing corporate offices, digital information storage, and event spaces available for community gatherings.
The structure represents the final educational institution constructed in Virginia with ornate exterior details, marking the end of elaborate school architecture.
