H IST 0 RY MAnoMET COMMUNITY HIGH scnoor. The Mahomet Community High School, District 303, was organized in the September election of 1919. The grade school building was used until September, 1921, while the high school building was being constructed. The high school was not completed until 1922. The south wing of the building was to be the assembly, the upper part of the north wing was to be the gym, and the lower part of the north wing was to be a swimming pool. The boys were so badly in need of a place to practice basketball that the labor to put in the gym floor was donated. The stage was in the west end of the gymg the assembly was in the present picture room until the peach tree was removed from the center of the north wing and the auditorium and community 'room were finished in 1937.
