The Class of 1960 was the first graduating class, with about 130 graduates from Centerport and Greenlawn only.^{[citation needed]} That first class used the building for four years as it was being completed.^{[citation needed]}

The name Harborfields came from a combination of the older names of Centerport (Little Cow Harbor) and Greenlawn (Old Fields), selected from an entry in a naming contest in about 1958.^{[citation needed]}
