Crosman Hall today mained until 1955. During the period from 1928 to 1930, two significant advancements were made. First the old Junior School was purchased, second, donations by Joseph B. Ryan made possible the present gym- nasium. From that time until 1950, when the new wings were built, the school remained virtually unchanged. In 1955 the Oaks was stripped down and remodeled making the modern Crosman Hall.
