On June 1, 1904 a fire occured
at school 44 cuasing a damage
of $500 or $600. The children were
housed in other buildings until
the school term closed. One of
the buildings was the shooting
pavilion at 21st and Sugar Grove.
Another was at 19th and Sugar
Grove - southwest corner. This
bulding is still standing.

The grounds at 21st and Sugar
Grove were considered a good
location for a new school 44. The
German Park Association owned
this ground.

They agreed to sell this ground
for the new school site on Dec. 28, 1904
for $4,300 taking the property at
19th and Sherman in part payment
of $1,300 and agreeing to let the
Board use the property for two
years rent free. This made the
Board make a payment of $3,000
to the Board of Directors of the
Indianapolis German Park
Association.

Finally the old site was traded
