The ACO Subway, a 12th Grade Business Class, taught by Miss Bemioe Portis, believes in doing something constructive for others. Their primary objective in life is to help in any capacity that they can at John Hay. They proved this belief recently when they presented the Yearbook Staff with a $100.00 check. These energetic young students, inspired by their teacher, sold candy to raise money for one of their projects. Several of the members are participating in the Ford Foundation Dealership Accounting Project. They are presently waiting for employment openings. The Ford Foundation project is in conjuction with the Cleveland Board of Education. During the spring several of the students participated in the actual Computer Programming at the Board of Education Supplementary Center. Miss Portis finds it enjoyable working with these students and looks forward to the new students who will have their work cut out for them.
