Taking Part Clubs at MHS helped to promote leadership, school spirit, and service. By means of the MHS Student Coun- cil , those chosen by their classmates represented their class in the govern- ing of our school, and at the same time served the students by various projects. Only the top 10% of our high school were eligible for membership in the National Honor Society. Pep Club, Glee Club, FFA, FJA, FHA, Thespians and Spanish Club all played a vital part in the life of our school. They promoted spirit, enter- tained the student body, prepared for school banquets, and raised money for club projects and trips. 1 think I am finally eligible for Na- tional Honor Society this year, a hard-working junior whispered ex- citedly . Get that bull rigged—it's time to let him go! ordered an older FFA boy at the annual rodeo. It was these clubs that improved opportunities of enjoyment at MHS. 25
