ISAAC C. ELSTON SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL The Isaac C. Elston Senior High School was opened in September, 1925 with Mr. Murray acting as principal of both the Junior and Senior buildings. In September 1926 Mr. Knapp became principal of Senior High, and the graduating class of this year entered as freshmen. This is the first class which entered this building in the nine-one semester and will probably be the last, because the first semester of the ninth year is now spent in Junior High School. This class is also the first to have had Mr. Knapp as principal for the entire four years. This building is Michigan City’s third high school and was built in 1924 on what had previously been the school playgrounds. The enrollment for the second semester was over eight hundred, and the graduating class numbered approximately one hundred and fifty. 7
