Setting The Tone For School Pride

I believe school pride is very important. You should be proud of where you attended class at all levels. Even before stepping through the doors and walking the halls, there are some things that will set the tone from the start.

I know it sounds strange but things like mascots, nicknames, and school colors make a huge difference. It is difficult to get excited about your teams if all those factors are bad or underwhelming. Don't get me wrong, I understand the most important part is the education that the students are receiving but being excited about your school is great too.

Wisconsin School Mascots Have a Good Leader

It is always good to have someone or something take charge and be the leader. Someone the rest can look up too. For Wisconsin schools, that is Bucky Badger. He is the mascot for the University of Wisconsin. I believe different is good. It makes you stand out. I think the world already has enough tigers, bulldogs, and lions.
