The Hamilton School Spring Bazaar was the concept of four concerned parents who were interested in finding a way to help our School and teachers. To provide some of the modern teaching aids to assure our children of a first rate Education. We, as Parents, feel that our School is inferior to the southside schools in this district, being that some of our teachers find it necessary to buy teaching aids with their own money to help some of our children learn, where as the conventional method has failed. We have also found that our teaching materials are late, which works an inconvenience and hardship on our teachers. This Bazaar will not be a cure-all for Hamilton’s schools problems, but it is the beginning of a movement by the parents to help in whatever small way we can, to upgrade our Schools.
The Hamilton School Spring Bazaar will be held on Saturday, June 2, 1973, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., at the Hamilton School.
The booths will be as follows:
Kindergarten — Candyland 1st grade — Penny Arcade 2nd grade — Sewing 3rd grade — General Store 4th grade — Crafts & Hobbies 5th grade — Sweet Shop 7th grade — Snack Shack 8th grade — Art
Mrs. Dorothy Lloyd Mrs. Marilyn Jones Mrs. Loretta Lloyd Mrs. Maverine Wilson
The above names are the parents who organized the Spring Bazaar. However, we are gathering momentum, and our ranks have grown to include Mrs. Kathy Johnson, Mrs. Barbara Halley and Mrs. Jane Davis. We hope to interest more parents to help in our efforts.
