Marquette High School Determining Potential New Nicknames

Marquette, MI – On 1/8/2024, as part of the MSHS rebranding process, the MAPS Board of Education discussed 34 potential nicknames provided by the MSHS Advisory classes.  The Board of Education approved the following list for consideration:

Cardinals, Hawks, Marauders, Reds, Redtail Hawks, Red Hawks, Red Jackets, Sentinels

The Board of Education will continue discussing these names during their meeting on January 16th and plan to make a final decision regarding a new MSHS nickname during their meeting on January 22, 2023.  The following criteria will continue to be considered during the rebranding process:

  • The ideal nickname would pay tribute to the unique aspects of our school district and community

  • The name cannot reference any protected class (i.e., race, gender, religion, etc.)

 

We welcome the community’s input.  Any feedback regarding the above-mentioned list of potential names should be emailed directly to the MAPS Board of Education at schoolboard@mapsnet.org.
