The buildings originally were built on separate sites. The Churchton School was constructed in 1921 and the Shady Side School was constructed in 1926. Both were built as single-story schools with two-room-plans. Decades later, one of the school buildings was moved to the site of the other, and expansion followed.

The Churchton school was moved to the Shady Side School site in 1953. A wing was added in 1958.[2]

The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]
