Students at Wichita North High School voted for a new mascot Thursday, picking from four potential mascot names. The four potential names the students voted on were Wolfpack, Red Hawks, North Stars, and Red Storm. USD 259 spokesperson Susan Arensman says the voting happened, but the results have not been released.
In July 2020, the Wichita Board of Education began considering the name change after they received a lot of requests from the community. Arensman says the school district will get input from both alumni and future students from middle schools that feed into Wichita North.
There is no timeline on when a recommendation would be given, and the district does not want to share the results of the vote by the students.
