Santa Barbara Junior High School is a public junior high school in Santa Barbara, California, established in 1924. It is the oldest of four junior high schools in the Santa Barbara Unified School District, and serves students in grades 7-8. The school's current main building, constructed in Spanish Colonial Revival style, opened in 1932 and was designated a City of Santa Barbara Historic landmark on March 26, 1985. The school is home to the Marjorie Luke Theatre, a community events venue jointly overseen by the Santa Barbara Unified School district and the 501(c)(3) non-profit Santa Barbara Community Youth Performing Arts Center. The Santa Barbara Junior High School library also hosts a historic mural completed in 1934 as part of the New Deal Federal Art Project, painted by American West painter, Douglass Ewell Parshall. Located in Santa Barbara's Eastside neighborhood, Santa Barbara Junior High School has been recognized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation as an example of a historic, centrally located community school to which many students are able to walk from home.
