Significance: Bragg School is a property considered eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places because of architectural rather than historic significance. There were no known events which would contribute to its eligibility. However, the school is associated with a significant architect. The E.S. Bragg School was designed by the regionally important architectural firm of Perkins, Fellows and Hamilton, based in Chicago. Architecturally significant as an example of a type of architecture, Bragg School couples a well articulated, nicely scaled exterior with an innovative floor plan which exemplifies the design philosophy promulgated by Dwight H. Perkins, one of the leading school architects of the period.
