History, Hillside Public Schools. Accessed April 25, 2023. "As both schools in the township were grammar schools, students who wished to have more than a grammar school education went to a high school in Elizabeth. Because of the growing population in 1917 a new school called Central Grammar School was built on Coe Avenue. It would later become the first high school... By 1938 the Coe Avenue School was inadequate to meet the continued needs of the community so a new high school building was completed in 1940 to accommodate sophomores, juniors and seniors."
