The Marshfield Senior High School is historically significant under Criterion A. The school is an excellent, largely intact example of an educational facility designed for a variety of student and community needs, including social, vocational and academic training. The school was state-of-the-art for its time. The Marshfield Senior High School also represents the work incorporating the Art Deco and Art Moderne styles of the architectural firm Eschweiler & Eschweiler of Milwaukee. The period of significance extends from its opening in 1940 to the end of the historic period in 1954. Despite additions to the building, it retains sufficient historic integrity to represent significance in the area of education and to demonstrate the educational ideals promoted during the period of construction. - NRHP, 6 April 2005
