Shortridge Celebrates 114th Birthday The March 24th, 1928 issue of The ln- dianapolis News stated, Many a grad- uate of Shortridge High School gasps with astonishment when he views the impressive new building at North Meridian and 34th Streets that is near- ing completion. This was understand- able, considering the history of Shor- tridge as explained in The News. From 1864 to 1884 the Indianapolis High School, as it was then called, met in three different locations downtown. A permanent structure was built in April of 1884 at Michigan and Pennsylvania Streets. The new building was consi- dered to be modern for the times, and both students and teachers marveled at the wide corridors and the beautiful main staircase. ln 1897 the name Shortridge High School was adopted in honor of A.C. Shortridge, who was responsible for the organization of the school in 1864. But as all things change, Shortridge too changed, and the need for a new building became evident. ln 1928 the present building at 34th and Meridian Streets opened. The 1928 Annual was dedicated to the old building at Michigan and Pennsylvania Streets. Besides structural changes, Shor- tridge has also gone through two world wars, twenty-three United States presi- dents, and sixty-one 500-mile races. As the 1928 Annual was dedicated to the old building, it is necessary to remember the success of the fifty years Shortridge has had in this building and the one hundred and fourteen years it has had as a school. Long live Shortridge! Above - Shortridge High School - 1977 Below - Inscriptions below the balustrade show the quality of education offered inside.

Cafeteria Has Efficient System Most students and faculty take the cafeteria for granted. The seventeen- member staff works hard to please the crowdp their day begins at 5:00 a.m. and usually lasts until 3:00 p.m. Mrs. Pollitt, the food manager for Shortridge, also makes all of the baked desserts. When asked if she enjoyed her job, Mrs. Pol- litt stated, I wouldn't be here if I didn't. Most of the food used in the cafeteria is purchased on bids. Companies send the bids to the Education Center and they choose some and check their choice with Mrs. Pollitt. This process repeats itself twice a year. The youngest on the staff this year was Darnice McGraw, in her early twenties. The staff worked well with the equipment they had, making for an efficient system.
