Proud members of the Dupont School Patrol and their honored guests pose for a group picture in front of school buildings on October 22, 1955. The multi-cultural school children seem to range from relatively young to early teens. Each is wearing a white sash with badge. School patrols were an important part of the community; they provided protection for children walking to and from school.

A proud and happy group of school patrol leaders pose in front of Dupont School on October 1, 1954. The boys and girls all sport sashes with patrol badges pinned on them. School patrols provided protection for children walking to school by keeping a close eye on oncoming traffic; they may have had other duties as well. School administrative staff and honored guests were invited to join the children in the above photograph. One man seated in the front row holds a plaque with engraved names.
