A 1,000-seat auditorium was built in 1959, supplementing the school's little theatre. In the 1961–62 academic year, just prior to the completion of Crestmoor High School, student enrollment exceeded 1,800 and almost every available space was utilized for classrooms.In 1963, KPIX (Channel 5) filmed scenes, including a pep rally, at the school for its weekly High School Salute program.
