Changes . . . We meet them and adapt X n 1965, the cornerstone for a new high school called John Marshall, was set proudly into place by Principal ThomS M. Haynes, on the quiet suburban corner of 38th and Mitthoeffer. Sixteen years later the landmarks surrounding the school have changed drastically. Wide open flat land, cov- ered by wooded fields, gave way to urban progress, and the building of three shopping centers, two fast food franchises, two pizza parlors, and several sprawling apartment complexes which surround the school on all four sides. Even the school itself has undergone several changes. To allow additional space for vocational classes such as drafting, met- al working and welding, a vocational wing was annexed from the Arts Corridor in 1973. Grounds occupied by tennis courts shrank in order to create a bus depot lot. Student enrollment climbed to nearly 2,600 in 1976, then tapered off and began to decrease to the 1,700 students which presently attend Mar- shall. Court ordered busing of the 70 ' s brought a shift in ra- cial balance. The balance shifted again in 1981 with the deseg- regation of Indianapolis schools. Inside the classroom, edu- cational emphasis was on better spelling and extended vocabu- lary. Although Iowa Test scores revealed that Marshall students exhibited signs of improving at a better rate than other I.P.S. students, some classes were removed from the curriculum, because of dwindled enrollment and a shortage of teachers. Surprisingly, at Marshall, nearly 200 surplus students en- rolled than originally anticipated. Classrooms bulged to ac- commodate the additional students, sending the individual class- room size to nearly 40 in many English, biology, math and social studies classrooms. The 1 98 1 School Board decision to close Shortridge High meant the relocation of both teachers and students. Although most were absorbed by Broad Ripple, some became Patriots! Changes never stopped in the world around us. Reagano- mics became a familiar word in the minds of everyone, for it was the term for the massive budget cuts set into effect Octo- ber first. These budget cuts affected us all. For the first time in history, a woman would wear the robe of the Supreme Court. Sandra Day O ' Connor became the first female jus- tice. The pomp and ceremonial glitter of the Royal British Wed- ding dazzled nearly everyone, as millions of viewers tuned in to view the jubilant celebration of Prince Charles ' wedding and his Princess Diana. The assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat brought back memories of Ronald Reagan ' s shooting last March as well as the unsuccessful attempt on Pope John Paul II. Closer to home. Prosecutor Stephen Goldsmith waged a war on drug abuse with his It takes guts to say no slogan. Changes ... we met them; we adapted and matured.
