,. Senior High First Provided Auditorium, Enlarged Gymnasimn, Cafeteria Twenty years have passed since Superin- tendent William F. Shirley first assumed his present duties. And in those many, many seasons the waters of progress, improvement, and advancement have gradually been refill- ing the reservoir of Marshalltown's system of public education. Wastes in the form of in- creasing deficits and backwardness have been drained. Now new reservoirs are building. Naturally, as one looks back over a span of years, certain accomplishments stand out. Neglecting, but not forgetting, hundreds of sig- nificant improvements of lesser importance, our bird's eye camera first focuses upon the erec- tion of the Senior High School, the greatest achievement. Three-fold advantages accrued from the erection of Marshalltown's 35400000 Senior High School. This structure, a noteworthy project attained under Superintendent Shirley's ad- ministration, provided accommodations for a junior college and made an expanded indus- trial arts program possible. In line with the nationwide trend it also made possible in Below-Shirley Visits Girls' Electricity 1927 the adoption of the junior-senior high school organization. In accordance with a survey of the popula- tion trend, the cornerstone was laid for the structure being erected in the southwest part of the city April 5, 1926. The building was first used for classroom purposes in the fall of 1927 and had already reached its capacity by 1935. Plans for making additional room have been studied carefully. Other physical additions made in this era include the Anson lunior High and the Aaron Palmer grade schools. The former was built to care for those in the far southeast part of the city who might have to forego high school on account of the distance and to house a com- munity center where this suburban neighbor- hood might enjoy social functions. The latter, Marshalltown's largest grade school, was con- structed to provide 13 classrooms for accom- modating the expanded first ward.
