The last high school graduating class at the original high school was in 1969, about the same time desegregation and integration forced the closing of the schools serving black students in the area. There were not enough children to justify a high school in Fort White, so students in grades 9–12 were bused 20 miles (32 km) to Columbia High School in Lake City for the next 30 years. After the Ichetucknee Springs State Park opened in 1971, the population in the south end of the county grew to the point where the need for a local facility developed.
A $25 million high school was completed in December 2000 for grades 6–12. It opened in August 2000 in temporary buildings because of construction delays. Fort White High School graduated the first class at the new school in 2001. A new Fort White Middle School for grade 6 was completed prior to the 2008–09 school year. The rest of the middle school (for grades 7 and 8) has also been completed with the middle and high school joined.
