The Eagle-Indians mascot is quite an interesting one, and it's mostly associated with The Dalles High School in Oregon. This mascot combines two symbols: the eagle, which is often seen as a powerful and swift bird 🐦, and the Indian, which was meant to honor Native American heritage. However, it's important to note that this mascot, along with other Native American-themed mascots, was phased out in Oregon due to concerns about cultural sensitivity and respect. The Oregon Board of Education decided that these mascots could be hurtful and reinforcing of stereotypes, so schools had to choose new mascots by 2017. This change was part of a broader effort to ensure that school mascots are respectful and inclusive. So, while the Eagle-Indians mascot was once a part of school spirit, it's now a piece of history that highlights the importance of understanding and respecting different cultures.
