In 1973 a new school opened just outside of Jacksonville in Trimble Township. The school adopted the name of the township becoming Trimble High School. The mascot and color scheme was the idea of football coach Carl Bachman in 1929. The present high school was built in 1986 in Glouster by State and local funding. It was up-dated in 1998.
