The Oswego High School building at 61 Franklin Street operated for only 13 years before the town outgrew the building again. In the early 60s, the village bought farmland along the eastern side of Route 71 (Illinois), and began constructing a new high school. At the same time, the village began constructing East View Elementary School, which was to be located across Illinois Route 71 from the planned high school. In 1964, classes started at the new Oswego High School, along with classes at East View. Middle school courses moved into the former Oswego High School on Franklin Street, where the building was renamed Oswego Junior High, later known as Traughber Junior High (named after SD308 superintendent T. Loyd Traughber). The building at 4250 Route 71 is the current Oswego High School.
