Marshall High School will celebrate its 51 years educating students in Southeast Portland from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, June 4.
“A Tribute to Marshall” will include food, entertainment, memorabilia displays and a raffle. There is no cost.
Current and former students and staff members are invited, along with friends of the school. RSVP at the
Tribute to Marshall webpage.
Marshall High School opened Sept. 6, 1960. At its height, it had more than 2,000 students. The high school closed in June 2004, and four small schools opened that fall.
Today, about 700 students are enrolled in three schools on the Marshall Campus: BizTech High School, Pauling Academy of Integrated Sciences and Renaissance Arts Academy. The campus also houses an alternative program, Alliance at Marshall Night School.
The Portland School Board voted in October to
close the Marshall Campus at the end of this school year. This fall, most current Marshall freshmen, sophomores and juniors will attend Franklin or Madison high schools.
