Attention all Kewpies!
David H. Hickman High School has received an exterior face lift to it's west entrance.
It is beautiful, but we will miss the old west entrance as we knew it.
Do you have unique and interesting Kewpie memorabilia of those days at Hickman,
or even before there was a west entrance?
A long over due change was made to the west interior as well.
Where you remember the Hickman Crest outside the west entrance,
is now the back wall in the Kewpie Museum.
If you have an item or items you would like to donate to the museum,
please drop them off at the Main Office at Hickman High School and see the new changes or
contact Kay Lindner, Activities Director Assistant.
Call 573-214-3007 or email klindner@columbia.k12.mo.us

There are six distinct parts. It’s foundation is a ribbon of support.
The letters on the ribbon are D.H.H.H.S. which stand for
DAVID H. HICKMAN HIGH SCHOOL.
In the lower right corner is the lyre indicating MUSIC, to the left
are the palette and brush, the emblems of ART. In the upper right
rests the lamp of eternal KNOWLEDGE, and opposite this section
to the left is the wreath of VICTORY which sympolizes not only
the physical victory but also the moral victory for which we all strive.
Above the emblems of music, art, victory and knowledge shines the
torch of TRUTH AND ACHIEVEMENT. This torch guides us
in unselfishly passing on to others the knowledge we have gained
from the various fields mentioned.
With this light to guide us, WE CANNOT FAIL, so all of us must do our part to keep its light briqht.
PURPLE: Symbolic of royalty and indicative of the highest of ideals
and aims.
GOLD: Symbolic of integrity and honesty.
The SEAL or the CREST was designed and adopted by
