- History & Memorable Moments[1]
- The oldest high school in the Northside Independent School District, Marshall educates students from 9th grade (freshman) through 12th grade (senior). 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 Supreme Court Justices).
- John Marshall High School is located at 8000 Lobo Lane which is just off Eckhert Road between Bandera Road and Babcock Road in NW San Antonio; the zip is 78240.
- The school is named in honor of the fourth Supreme Court Chief Justice of the United States, John Marshall. The school mascot is the Ram, which was picked by students in 1950 and was based on the then-NFL Los Angeles Rams mascot. The school colors are maroon and white.
- John Marshall H.S. is a past recipient of the U.S. Blue Ribbon Schools Program. This program acknowledges outstanding public schools in the United States that demonstrate strong commitments to excellence in education for all students. In addition to Marshall H.S. being a past recipient of this US Govt award, two of its feeder middle schools, Stevenson and Connally, have won this award too. In addition, a feeder elementary school, Glen Oaks, has also won this award. The John Marshall H.S. area, including all its feeder schools, continues to be a high quality educational experience for all students in the community.
- Because it's the oldest and the original high school for the Northside ISD, its original huge attendance zones have been split through the years to form many of the current high schools including Holmes H.S. to the south in the early 60s...Jay H.S. a few years later although part of its area was also formed from the fairly new Holmes H.S. zones. In 1978, Marshall was split again with the creation of Clark H.S. to the east and then yet again in 1985 when Taft H.S. was opened further west. The last large area of the Marshall attendance zone was split off when the Helotes and north Loop 1604 areas were switched to the new O'Connor High in 1998. Though its attendance zones are much smaller than they ever were, Marshall H.S. still posts high academic scores and is still competitive in sports with the varsity football team winning the District Title for the 06-07 school year. The new Brandeis H.S., which opens in 2008 and will be mostly made up of large areas of the former Clark and O'Connor attendance areas, may also have a small effect on Marshall especially if the far northern areas near Prue Road are switched to the new school.
