The cost to change the mascot is estimated to be around $200,000.

    Except this wasnt something the students asked for - it was a unilateral decision by the board

    They never asked us if we liked our current mascot or if we wanted to change it. We were just told that it had to change,

      Students don’t always ask for things that they benefit from. If the school improved the bus routes or auditorium and some random student exclaimed “I didn’t ask for this!”, that student would rightly be ignored.

      These decisions are best left to parents, not students. And the parents elect the board. Considering how long this has been going on, parents have had plenty of opportunity to elect new board members if this wasn’t what they wanted.
