New W F West High School Bearcat Logo Put on Hold (KELA Radio, Centralia, WA)

(CHEHALIS, WA) -- After largely negative community response, adopting the proposed new W.F. West High School Bearcat mascot logo has been put on hold.  The logo, which came about as part of a two-year long project by students at the school, was designed with the help of an alumnus with a graphics background. The uproar happened after students and staff began summer break. A letter from W.F. West High School on Thursday says, “..we don't feel like we can move forward until we have everyone back for a full discussion. The plan is to revisit the logo and gain additional input from the faithful Chehalis community in the fall.”
