The school was overcrowded and had to use the community centre to help accommodate the number of students. In the 1980s the school’s population started to decline because of a shrinking population in Three Mile Plains. In the 1990s the special education program closed, and the enrollment numbers fell again. In 2005, the school had an enrollment of 132 students; by 2007 it had risen to 160.
Five Mile Plains School was erected in 1945 and it became integrated in 1963. It was a one room school house for elementary students.

Five Mile Plains had goals for students: “Respect Your Heritage, Respect Yourself, Respect Your Family”. They also had an anthem:
Cheer, Cheer, for old Five Mile Plains Wake up the Anthem, Cheer in its name. Lend your voices, cheer on high Shake down the thunder from the sky. What tough the odds, be great or small Old Five Mile Plains will win over all. Like our, loyal sons, We’re marching onward to victory!
