Imagine a school mascot that's as bold as it is unique – meet the Satans, a mythological mascot that once represented the athletic teams of Devils Lake High School in North Dakota. This tough-sounding nickname was in use for nearly 80 years, making it a significant part of the school's history. However, in 2002, the school board decided to change it due to concerns from religious groups and others who found the name offensive. Despite its controversial nature, the Satans mascot remains an interesting footnote in the history of school mascots, showing how important it is for schools to choose names that make everyone feel included and respected. Today, the teams at Devils Lake High School are known as the Firebirds 🐦, a name that's both fierce and unifying⭐.
