The Reid School is a classic Richardsonian Romanesque building designed by Sweatt, Levesque and Company, an architecture firm from Spokane, Washington.
 Ed and George Brosterhous were the general contractors who supervised the school's construction.
 The school was built in the center of a 1.9-acre (7,700 m²) parcel in downtown Bend, facing Idaho Avenue.
 It is surrounded by lawn with concrete walkways leading to the front door.
 There are a number of large Ponderosa pine trees that shade the grounds, giving the area a park-like atmosphere.

The school is a three-story rectangular structure, with a footprint measuring 52 feet (16 m) by 60 feet (18 m).
 The building rests on a concrete foundation.
 The structure itself was constructed of locally quarried pink volcanic tuff.
 However, the original pinkish color has weathered to a light brown.
 The central feature of the building's facade is its entryway.
 The imposing double-leaf doors are recessed from the front wall in a shallow vestibule.
 The entry is flanked on the first floor by three classroom windows on each side.
 The second and third story facade is dominated by tall windows with fixed panes.
 The roof is covered with built-up asphalt.

The Reid School was built as a modern education facility with ten classrooms, an auditorium, a central heating system, built-in electric clocks, drinking fountains, indoor plumbing, and an external fire escape system.
 The interior of the school is characterized by high ceilings, steep stairways, and large high-bay windows that provide natural light to the classrooms.
 The interior walls are lath and plaster, and are still in good condition.
 The original doors, moldings, and window casings are also in good condition.
 The original plumbing fixtures are still in use.
 The original boiler heating system is intact, but is no longer used.
