Additionally, JHS has "Out-houses" or temporary classrooms separate from the main building that were built in the 1970s meant to last 10 years, however they are still in use. Students often kick, punch, or steal pieces of these buildings for memories of their beloved Jefferson. The facility is celebrating its 50th Birthday in 2007. It has gone through several remodeling in 1963, 1978, 1979, and the most recent in 1993.
