History

Named after United States Supreme Court Justice John Marshall, ground was broken for construction in 1924, with completion of the main building in 1925. Several expansions occurred in the following decades; in the 1930s (North Building), 1960s (Cafeteria), 1970s (Bungalows - demolished in 2015), 2000s (Science Building) and 2010s (Gymnasium/ M Building). Marshall was a junior high school for nearly fifty years, from its opening until the 1973-1974 school year, when it became a fundamental school (K-12). In 1976, grades K-6 were moved to other campuses (Longfellow, Washington), but the sixth grade level was reinstated during the 1985-1986 year.

Performance

Jay Mathews, an educator and education reporter for the Washington Post, listed Marshall Fundamental as the 130th best high school as of 2007, chiefly due to its vast number of underprivileged students, high graduation rate, and 70% free and reduced lunch program. This was enough to be singled out for the cover of Newsweek, and was featured exclusively as one of America's best schools. Marshall was first posted in 2003 as 119th, but fell in the following years to 255 in 2005, and 286 in 2006. It saw a jump in the 2012 school year, rising 156 places, back into the top 10%. Marshall in 2017 was ranked 897 overall in the nation and 152 in the state of California.
