John Marshall High School (commonly Marshall, Marshall High, or JMHS) is a free public secondary school in the San Antonio suburb of Leon Valley in northwest Bexar County. The school serves students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Northside Independent School District, with admission based primarily on the locations of students' homes. The campus serves most of the city of Leon Valley and large portions of northwest San Antonio. Marshall was named a National Blue Ribbon School in 1992-93.〔 〕 In 2009, the school district was rated "academically acceptable" by the Texas Education Agency.〔(【引用サイトリンク】2009 Accountability Rating System )〕 == History == The oldest high school in the Northside Independent School District, the school was known as Northside High School from 1949 until 1960, when it was renamed ''John Marshall High School'' (starting the trend among Northside high schools, all of which are named after U.S. Supreme Court Justices). The school was once particularly known for its vocal music department, which has made sweepstakes in UIL for the past few decades. Vocal music isn't the only outstanding fine arts program at Marshall. The Ram Band too has been consistent sweepstakes winners. In 1976 the band set a world's record for continuous concert, performing 52 hours and 3 minutes in Wonderland Mall (now known as Wonderland of the Americas). That same year, the band became the first band from the state of Texas in 20 years to be invited to march in the 1977 Tournament of Roses Parade. The Ram Band also appeared in the 1977 feature film "Rolling Thunder". The first and second band directors at Marshall have had Northside Schools named for them; Mr Bob Lewis, band director from 1957 to 1975 and Mr. Charles Kuentz Jr., band director from 1975 into the 1980s. In 1966 the John Marshall Basketball team won the State AAA championship, becoming the first and only sports team from John Marshall, in any sport to do so. John Marshall defeated League City Clear Creek, 64-60 in overtime at Gregory Gym, University of Texas. Coach Ted Dockery of Texas A&I coached the state championship team. Wayne Doyal, (first team all state center) and Dennis Leach led the well balanced Ram team. Wayne Doyal later played for the University of Texas 1968-70. 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「John Marshall High School (Leon Valley, Texas)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
