As for the mascot we will be the rebels until the student body votes this year on what we would like it to be. Johnny Reb is out so we are just the Rebels no the Johnny Rebels. Over all as far as the students are concerned this isn't a big deal to change. They would love to get one in there that is more them and less controversial. (Ian's mom and dad here: we are glad to see it go. Yeah that is what was there when we were, but even back then we were trying to take action to change.) Please help your child in making this a positive transition and try not to drag them down whith your opionion. We are just kids and we need strong rollmodles to help us get past this change. The last thing we need is to fight with parents about what it used to be and how this change takes away their heritage.
Just love on your child. Show them support with the new fight song and maybe suggest some new mascots. We can make this a positive change. 1 person at a time. I am blessed to my parents helping me through this and leading by example. Thanks MOM and DAD.
