Joshua may have caused ancient .lericha's walls to tumble, but even S-M's oversized tribe cannot shake this familiar building. l 1 0 the building - used The plan appeared thirty-six years ago, suited to the growing needs of this area. lt was Shawnee-Mission! invaded by approximately two hundred enthusiastic students, the original structure consisted of present- day math department, faculty room, the crafts room, part of the kitchen, and the cafeteria. However, the growth spread in l936, and the enlarged student body streamed back and forth under an arcade which connected the east building to the west, com- posed of the language department, auditorium, and girls' gym. In seven years a lump formed in the shape of a mechanics building used also for vocational agriculture. But over-consumption caused a great bulge in l95l. Rampant construction resulted in the boys' gym, a library, a new wing of classrooms, the music department, the office, a commercial area, and everywhere stretched halls, a mile and an eighth long, in all. Accommodating not only people but cars, S-M supplied a third parking lot for the convenience of that special group, the seniors. When S-M's walls bulged with every space utilized, the growth was prepared for transfer to the new senior high. Grow- ing too were 2800 people, each housing a mind, a soul, a personality-all growing.
