Istrouma High School
Istrouma High School is a public school located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. It was founded in 1917, and was located in East Baton Rouge Parish. Its name is a local Indian word meaning "red stick". Red stick is also the English language translation of the French words baton rouge. The area of north Baton Rouge where the school is located is also known as the Istrouma area.
==History==
Istrouma High School began in 1917, in a two room frame building with a faculty of two. In 1921 the school moved to a larger brick building at the corner of Erie Street and Wenonah Street. The school had its first graduations in 1921, in the form of the grammar school portion having graduations that year. The first high school graduations came in 1924. In 1931 another building was added at the corner of Erie Street and Tecumseh Street. The school first fielded a football team and band in 1935.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ABOUT US - Istrouma High School '64 )〕 With increasing enrollment, a third (and much larger) building was added in 1940, at the corner of Erie Street and Osceola Street. The school's name and location were proposed to be changed in 1945 to Franklin D. Roosevelt High School.〔http://www.boodrow.com/mainwebsite/ihshistory.htm#Istrouma High School〕 This name change never occurred, but the school did move to its current location on Winbourne Ave, in 1951. This move and expansion became necessary due to increased enrollment caused by the Louisiana Legislature adding a twelfth grade to school curriculums in 1949.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ISTROUMA HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1952 Golden Reunion )〕 The old school buildings became the home of Istrouma Junior High School, and were later torn down in 2005. Being located in North Baton Rouge, Istrouma High School, was considered for most of its history as the school for the sons and daughters of blue collar plant workers〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=cool.html )〕
. Its major cross town rival (until 1976) was Baton Rouge High School. In 2012, the school was taken over, and was being running as part of the Louisiana Recovery School District. In October 2013, it was announced that Istrouma High School would close down for at least one year following the 2013–2014 school year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State closing Istrouma, Glen Oaks schools | WBRZ News 2 Louisiana : Baton Rouge, LA | )〕 This announcement almost immediately sparked petiitons from old and new alumni to keep the school, which was nearing its 100 year anniversary mark, open.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Petition drive begins to keep Istrouma High School open | Home | The Advocate — Baton Rouge, Louisiana )〕 The school was merged with Capitol High School and reopened at Capitol High's campus starting with the 2015–2016 school year. The Istrouma High building continues to be used as school board administrative offices.
