Alumni Museum<\/h2>\n\n\n

One of the most prominent items is a spreadsheet of the \u201cHistory of Mayfield High School from 1899 to the Present\u201d. We have identified about 2400 pieces of information from the 5000 cells we have been researching. You can help by completing the Historical Records Research Form located elsewhere in this web site. Simply print the form, indicate your class and your name, do some research using your yearbook and memory bank, and send the form back to us with the information that is missing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mayfield Alumni Museum is located in the old Humanities Library in the 9-10 wing of the high school. It is a spacious area that includes eight large display cases and a tremendous amount of memorabilia that has been donated by alums over the years. Some of the Museum\u2019s features include a Class Box (stuffed with memorabilia) for every class that graduated from MHS, all the old Class Composites from 1930 to 1963 (the last class to graduate from the old high school on SOM Center Rd.), a collection of Class Rings, old Diplomas, many Plaques and Pictures, Athletic and Band Uniforms, Championship Trophies, and many unique items too numerous to mention.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Another prominent piece is \u201cThe Olde Clock and Control Box\u201d. This item goes back to the forties, and perhaps 1924 when the old high school was built. This clock, located in Principal R. W. Lackey\u2019s office, ran all the clocks and bells in the building. It is now located in the Alumni Museum inside a large glass-framed box. A plaque is included which further explains the use of \u201cThe Olde Clock and Control Box\u201d and how it found its way back to the Alumni Museum. The Alumni Association conducts a Memorabilia Night in May of each year. Alums are invited to dinner before we roll our sleeves up and go through the many boxes of items that have been donated. A comprehensive ring collection display is one of our current goals. Please consider donating your old class ring to our collection. We try very hard to properly identify every donated item and put it in its proper place within the Museum.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
