1. Am I right to assume that 抜けるような青空 means a cloudless blue sky?
2. May I ask what 舞い散る means?

1. Yes. I read that sentence as something like "a street lined with trees where the sakura are stained with the color of the cloudless sky; toward the fluttering pink petals, one can see a large, white school building"

2. 舞い散る is a poetic way of talking about leaves falling (dance + fall). There was a very popular song when I lived in Japan: 「さくら」～ケツメイシ - YouTube

Part of the lyrics:
さくら舞い散る中に忘れた記憶と
きみの声が戻ってくる
吹き止まらない春の風　あのころままで

きみが風に舞う髪かき分けた時の
淡い香り戻ってくる
二人約束した　あのころのままで
ヒュルリラ　ヒュルリラ

Later on they sing a lot about
花びら舞い散る
記憶舞い戻る
