The school that my sister works at is expanding. They are building new buildings and getting rid of the portables. They are changing the name of the school form "Southland Christian School" to "Southland Christian Academy". They also want to change the colors and mascot. Right now the colors are red and black, and the mascot is flames. Kind of stupid of a christian school, I'm not sure who came up with that.

I was wondering what your school colors and mascot was/is, or if you have any good suggestions.

Black/Teal- Rattlers...that's what we are. :p

But for a christian school, I like navy blue and silver colors with an owl, or some kind of less intimidating animal for a mascot. :)

Thank you all. This is the first chance I've had to read all your posts (I couldn't use the computer, my husband was working on it the last few days :( ). I'm still not sure what they're going to go with but I'll give all these to my sister, for some ideas. Thanks again.

High school color were orange and black - we were the pirates. Go figure ....

With our pumpkin-colored wool (no matter how hot it was out) band jackets, we privately called ourselves the marching pumpkins.

We were the green and gold (and white) Eagles!!

I can't find the picture of our new mascot but I do have a question for you guys.

I would like to know how freshmen from 1981 to the present (including myself :o ) got/get lost in this building:

http://schoolweb.missouri.edu/newmadridco.k12.mo.us/central.JPG

And by the way for those who are wondering the hallways follow the shape of the building (aka 3 circles connected by 2 straight hallways and the caf in the center)

All the public schools in Eaton Rapids had the same mascot. The Greyhound!!! :D Our colours are maroon and white. :)

Growing up I always tried to convince my parents that we needed a greyhound to show school spirit. ;) :D

We are also, the only Eaton Rapids on earth. :) Our little claim to fame. :)
