The Schoharie CSD Board of Education on Wednesday night ratified a district-wide vote to select a new mascot – we are now the Schoharie Storm!
The Board of Education accepted voting results that showed Schoharie Storm as the top first place vote-getter. The district is now moving to the next phase – the designing of a new mascot logo and all that comes with it.
A graphic design firm will be tasked with creating the new mascot logo, but an important first step in this will be to get ideas from the school community. We are seeking your input on what the new mascot should look like, as well as ideas for new themes, chants or anything else that may be associated with Schoharie Storm.
Please email ideas to SCSMascot@schoharieschools.org. Ideas can include written descriptions, thoughts or images. A shared Google Drive folder will be distributed to staff to help them as they work with students, who have a vital role to play. This folder will serve as a repository of ideas to help inspire the graphic design firm.
At the beginning of May, the graphic design firm will use these ideas as they create some initial renderings of a mascot logo. From there, these renderings will be shared with students to get their feedback.
The district’s goal is to have a ceremonial unveiling of the new mascot logo at the end of this school year. We are excited about this opportunity to launch the Schoharie Storm!
