History of Jefferson High School JEFFER SON TOWNSHIP SCHOOL was erected in 1928 to replace the one-room schools of the township. During the first vear the school included Grades 1 to 9. R. G. Wright was principal, and Elizabeth Bowman and Clarence Moore were teachers in the high school, and Opal Shrock, Edith Pletcher and Vietta Mahr taught the grades. The following year, IQZQ-30, the tenth year was added. Doris Wilson and I. L. Trump were added to the faculty, and Mr. Moore left. Music instruction was also offered by Mr. Loop. The school remained a ten grade school until 1933. At the beginning of the school year 1930-31, Gordon Adams became a teacher in the intermediate grades, and Sarah Snider taught in the high school succeeding Miss Bowman, Lester Kindy became principal for the school years 1931-32 and 1932-33. The first of these years saw three new teachers at jefferson: Vada Musser, Verna Stambaugh and Harold Anglemyer, who took the places of Doris Wil- son, Sarah Snider and Edith Pletcher, J. L. Trump became principal in the fall of 1933. At thistime the eleventh year of high school was added. Alvin Warstler became coach and industrial arts teacher. .This year, 1934-35, Iefferson has its first senior and graduating class. Frances Holbert was added to the staff of high School teachers. During this period. the school has developed from a nine grade school to an accredited twelve grade school. Courses are now offered in the lines of com- merce, practical arts, and academic or college preparatory, Au extra-curricu- lum program of clubs, athletics and other features has also been evolved. We hope that the years to come may see the school continue to evolve as a first class high school. . Page 21
