The community added greatly to the school life scene. With their support, many goals and achievements were accomplished. The Tri Kappa and the Alumni Association rewarded out- standing students with various scholarships. The Rotary Club spon- sored the Student ofthe Month and also the Exchange student. Graduating with the 1977 seniors was Nicola fNickyj Digby, an exchange student from Australia. The community was the backbone for many of our activi- ties and the students appreciated their cooperation. 1. Three Mitchell youths enjoy their candy apples during the Persimmon Festival, 2, An M.H.S. fan buys refreshments from a Junior selling for the prom at halftime of a football game. 3. Band parents help in the band's fund raising projects at the Festival.

I I fm , Determination, diligence, and sweat all were factors in making the 1977 Prom one of the best ever. Committees of willing Juniors, along with co-chairmen Mike Powell and Judy Miller, worked long hours after school making prep- arations. With the prom being held on Friday night, decorating at Spring Mill posed some problems. Under the direc- tion of Mrs. Staley and Mrs. Lowery, committee members worked both the night before the Prom and Friday morning. When all work was finished and final touches were added, those who contributed knew that the time they had devoted was worthwhile. 1. Brian Gerkin displays carpentry skills. 2. Melanie Pridemore and Judy Miller paint a scene as Greg Warren looks on. 3. Deanna Boling adds the finishing touch by placing a glittered star on the back- ground. 3 ff,
