Our school is continually involved in community affairs. Parades sponsored by Hamilton High are of great interest to the many citizens who are H.H.S. alumni. Before election in November all Hamilton High School students took part in a parade to promote the school bond issue. This parade was one of several in which students all over the city partici- pated, in order to show the citizens of Hamilton the large number of pupils which accounts for the present overcrowded conditions. Our marching might have had some influence on the voters, the bond issue passed although by a very narrow margin. Also in early November, the American History Club sponsored mock elections for all students to teach them civic participation. Posters for the community safety and Anti-Litter Cam- paign were made in art classes and displayed around town on buses and trash cans. Many civil groups make use ofthe high school and audi- torium. Among these are the Civic Music Association, Adult Education Classes, various church organizations, and Miami University Extension courses.
