At the time, Jefferson School housed four sections of third grade, Six sections of fourth grade, six sections of fifth grade, and two sections of special education. Rooms 14 through 16 were added in 1993 and rooms 17 through 27 were added in 1995, which increased the school's size to 53,000 square feet.
