Description

HIGH SCHOOL, HEBRON, IND.

Date: Circa 1950s Source Type: Postcard Publisher, Printer, Photographer: Unknown Postmark: None Collection: Steven R. Shook Remark: By the late 1920s, the school (located on the west side of Adams Street) serving Hebron, Porter County, Indiana, was becoming overcrowded and the community began to consider the construction of a new school to alleviate the capacity issue. The Great Depression had a significant financial impact on the community, however, and construction of the school seen above was delayed for over a decade.

Construction of the school seen here commenced in 1938 and was funded by the Works Progress Administration; the new school opened for use in 1939. Located at 307 South Main Street, the school consisted of 46 rooms and had a student capacity of 500.

As the Hebron community grew, additions to the school were completed in 1960, 1963, and 1968 (three elementary wings). In 1973, a major addition was added to the northeast side of the original building to serve as the middle school.
