Many clubs, organizations, and athletic teams have been offered to the Marion High School student body over the years. In 1897, MHS students participated in S.A.C.A., S.O.D., Phi Epsilon Iota, and Pi Upsilon Nu, to name a few. S.A.C.A. was a group that promoted social and athletic sporting events and fostered football and bicycling. S.O.D. was a group of young men who studied Shakespearean literature and encouraged literary debates throughout the school. Phi Epsilon Iota and Pi Upsilon Nu were Marion Highs two Greek letter fraternities. These groups helped to keep the young women busy through social events and discussions of topics relevant to young women (Juggernaut 27-30). Marion High School has always been proud of the "Giants." In athletics, by 1906, MHS offered football, polo, boys' and girls' basketball, and track, and competed with schools such as Huntington, Kokomo, and Logansport. There was also athletic competition within the school. Different clubs would create teams and compete against other clubs (Cactus 62-79).
