Clark is the superintendent of the district. He says discussions over the change have been happening for years - after the district decided to replace human mascots with non-human ones.Napa school board votes to change mascot considered racist "It's time for new attitudes. And if changing a mascot will make students feel welcome, embraced and empowers them to participate more at their school then I will support this," said Linda Mayo, one of the members of the district's board.
One of the concerns among those who called for change is the minuteman holding a musket - at a time where school shootings are top of mind for many students."With the term 'men,' then what about our female students? You know they're not represented," Clark said.
