Between the three districts, eleven one-room school houses would thereafter "unite" under one roof as the United Local School. Specifically, the first phase of this new building was the Elementary building, constructed with fifteen classrooms in 1951. As the number of students grew and advanced through the grades, classes were added and the High School was completed in 1955.Recent additionsToday, the original high school classrooms house seventh and eighth grade students. Additional classes and renovations came about in subsequent years, with the next major additions to take place in 1966. Eight years later, an elementary gymnasium was added (Brautigam Center). The elementary expanded with additional classrooms in 1984. Following suit was the high school with a number of major additions in 1993. At this time, the Brautigam Center was also renovated to accommodate kindergarten classrooms. More recently, a new auditorium and gymnasium were added in 1997, along with a third level of classrooms in the high school. In 2001, a new football stadium with a surrounding rubberized track was constructed. The newest addition that in 2004, added a wing that added six rooms to the east wing of the elementary and relocated the elementary office to the front of the building, with a parent drop-off driveway.
