Jefferson High School is a public high school in Portland, Oregon, founded in 1908. ==History== Jefferson opened in September 1908, and was initially named Albina High School, but was renamed Thomas Jefferson High School in early 1909. The school wasn't ready in 1908, but was opened early due to overcrowding. It was finished on February 6, 1910.〔 Hopkin Jenkins was principal at Jefferson from opening until June 1940.〔 Due to the baby boom and passing of a $25 million building levy by the school district in 1947, a new high school was slated. In September 1991, "at least six fires" were set at the school by an arsonist. On January 7, 2008, Mayor Potter relocated City Hall to Jefferson for a week. Potter held a City Council meeting and delivered the State of the City address there. The aim was stated to be to "give students, parents and educators a first hand lesson in how government really works - and to showcase the opportunities, successes and challenges facing every school in Portland's six public school districts."〔(Mayor Potter moving office to Jefferson High School for week of January 14-18; will hold City Council meeting and deliver State of the City on campus (01/07/08) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jefferson High School (Portland, Oregon)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
