The first year the school was open (1968–1969), the building's second floor had not yet been completed, which caused the class times for different grades to vary for a year; students in the 9th and 10th grade attended classes morning, whereas 8th grade classes took place in the afternoon. In September 1969, the entire student body was once again attending with normal hours.
