Dur¬ ing the past five years, Ciroveton High has been establishing sturdy roots through various pro¬ grams that have enriched all pha.ses of school administration. ithout the months of preparation prior to C.roveton s first year, the school’s growth would have been seriously impeded. W’ith the opening in September-, 1956, Choveton’s “manifest destiny was already well on its way. Throughout these five years, traditions have evol -ed-the .school mascot. Hag, seal, school colors, and songs—all of which symbolize CIroveton High .School.
