1919 to 1922 The Tiger Tale Began As Students Eagerly Responded To What Tech Had To Offer! Tech students, right from the school’s first days, seemed eager to train for jobs in this industrial community. When planners presented new courses, quick response for enroll- ment caused school population to grow from one student in 1919 to nearly 2000 students in the 1960’s. Course work was at first just part time to assist students who had to work. First offerings included such classes as blueprint reading and typing. Then came others — forge and foundry, machine shop, shorthand, business ma- chines. Also flourishing over the years was an impressive array of academic classes, required and elective. On and on classes and shops were added until at its peak Tech offered nearly twice as much as the ordinary high school. Tech also developed a highly successful athletic pro- gram. Its social life was enhanced by many extra-curricu- lar organizations. A chronology of important times in Tech ' s history fol- lows on this and other theme pages: 1893 — Hammond Central School was built on the corner of Hohman and Fayette where the Calumet National Bank now stands. It housed elementary . . . also high school students. When the high school outgrew this building, it moved to a new building on Calumet Ave- nue and was called Hammond Industrial High School, later shortened to Hammond High School. 1919 — Great need for a vocational school also became apparent. Mr. F.S. Barrows started a vocational school later called Tech in an attic room of the Cen- tral School. To begin with’, there was only one teacher, Mary Dwyer, and one student. Max Dcmps. Demand for enrollment grew and so classes were organized for girls in the afternoons and for boys in the mornings. In those early days students went part time, two days a week. Mr. Max Dcmps. Tech ' s first student as he was pictured in the 1 959 Chart.
