In an effort to include all stakeholders in selecting District 227's new mascot, we would like to discuss the possibility of sharing our new mascot voting poll with current 8th-graders and other students attending schools in District 163. Last month, our district launched a poll to select the district's new mascot to students, staff, alumni, and community members. The poll will close on Friday, March 13.
