This building was apparently designed to correspond in form with North Hall, designed by W. H. Floyd & Guy Stone in 1895 (demolished 1950). The Training School served as a laboratory where education majors could gain experience teaching elementary and high school classes. The stone entrance follows the typical J. F. Alexander & Son pattern of school entrances during this period. The building was renamed Stalker Hall in 1936. It was demolished in 1953.
