Peru Gazette Note: While it’s still subject to School Board approval, the name ‘Nighthawks’ was chosen as Peru School District’s new mascot. The Board has the matter on its November 10th meeting agenda.
Students, alumni, staff, and community members cast 2,412 votes. The Jayhawk logo received 456 votes, Wolfpack received 823 votes and Nighthawks garnered 1,153 votes.
Assuming the Board approves the ‘Nighthawks’ logo Superintendent Thomas Palmer said a committee would be formed and a timeline established. Artwork reflecting the Peru spirit will be one of the first items to tackle.
