edicafiou Although the City of Portland offers many opportunities to people of high school age, there is one group of Portland High School students who can neither take advantage of the city's resources, nor participate in the school's extra-curricular activities. These are the residents of Cliff Island who daily must voyage the choppy Altantic to reach school. Living on one of the outer islands of Casco Bay, they spend almost three hours daily in fair or foul weather commuting to and from school. During the winter, when the hay is frozen, they must sacrifice even more time in using a longer route. Because of the time consumed in making the trip, they must leave the city immediately after school each day. The parents of these students are made up for the most part of prosperous fishermen, who pursue one of the oldest trades of the Maine coast. The stu- dents live in a very closely-knit community, which, although isolated, feels itself to be a part of Portland. Although inclement weather often imposes additional hardships on the Cliff Islanders, they may well he proud of the excellent attendance record they have maintained through the years. T It is these Cliff Island boys and girls, who are denied the opportunities of- fered the other students of Portland High School, and yet who have been prominent school citizens in spite of their handicap, to whom we dedicate this, the 1952 Totem. l41
