The schools main building opened in 1928 at a time when most county residents lived near Camden and was the district's only campus until the Camden County Technical Schools Gloucester Township Campus opened in 1969 to serve more rural, eastern portions of the county.[1] In 2011, the campus opened the Science and Horticultural Center building to act as a multiple-classroom extension unit.
