1962-2000
(CLICK ON YEAR)
Having served Cumberland County Students for thirty-two years, the school building was no longer large enough for the ever-growing school population. The decision was made to consolidate the three county schools, CCHS, Homesteads High School, and Pleasant High School. 
The new high school, still known as Cumberland County High School, but with a new mascot, the Jets, was built on Stanley Street. The last graduating class of our beloved CCHS exited the building in 1962.
However, the old school building was by no means finished. Due to the growing need for more elementary classrooms, the CCHS building housed what was identified as Cumberland Elementary School. Students in grades six through eight attended classes there from 1962 to 1981.
Even though this building had served its last students, new uses were found for the building. In 1990, a growing benevolent organization, Cumberland Good Samaritans, was in need of space to house their food bank, thrift store and offices. The Cumberland County Commissioners allowed this organization to use the building, and the Cumberland Good Samaritans served the people of Cumberland County from this building until 2000 when they moved into their new facility.
After that time, the old CCHS Building sat vacant and began rapid deterioration. It appeared that Crossville and Cumberland County were about to lose an important historical landmark. Determined efforts by concerned alumni and others to prevent that loss fill the years from 2000 to the present.
