It received its current name when Gentofte Municipality took over the school in 1919. The current main building on Gersonsvej was inaugurated in 1924. It was designed by G. B. Hagen and Edvard Thomsen. Gehrdt Bornebusch undertook a renovation of the building in 1977–80. The building was listed in 1995.
