Squantum Search 2014!...on the hunt for a new mascot.

Introduction

Greetings, fifth and first grade buddies! Welcome to Squantum Search! We have been asked to complete the very important task of finding a mascot for our new school. There are so many different mascots to choose from. Do the Squantum Tigers sound like fierce competitors? Or does the Squantum Superstars have just the right ring to it? We are depending on you to help us make the right decision. Are you ready to make our school proud?

Task

During this process you will be asked to do 3 things:

1. Research mascots and logos from various sources.

2. Design a t-shirt with your logo idea.

3. Write a short paragraph with your "buddy" on why your logo should be chosen.
