  1. When I help select the mascot it felt alright. It would be better then nothing. I chose the picture I did because it was the best one out of the three. I'm not really proud because I don't have anything to be proud of. So that is my opinion for today.

  6. I was just happy that my opion made a difference. I would like to see the mascot on the outside of the building, and in the cafeteria. I chose the picture because I liked the drawing and it was very creative. I'm not proud of Toros because this school sucks.

  7. I really didn't think that by choosing the mascot today I made history. But I guess it's cool since were the first students of The Dream Academy. I choose the picture that I liked because it was a very nice drawing, and it was drawn by my friends.Yes, im proud that we finally have a mascot even though we don't have a team.

  8. It felt very nice I accomplished something. It would pass on to the others that come to the Dream Academy. I would like to see it all over the school. We need to represent it not just at the school but when we at home to. I chose the picture I chose because it was the best looking one. Yes I am proud of the toros, because I have never heard of a school that had the toros for their mascot.

  11. Selecting our school mascot didn't make me feel any different than I did yesterday. We did make history but, I really didn't see it as that much of a big deal. However, I do feel kind of special for being apart of the first people at this school who selected the school mascot. It always feels good to be the first to do something. I would like our mascot displayed on t-shirts, in uniform (for sports), on the school website (if we ever establish one), and around the school building. The picture I selected stood out to me more than all the other drawings so that was the one I chose to vote for. Yea I guess I am proud of the Toros because although we haven't accomplised as much as other schools in the district, we are trying and I believe that making an effort does count for something.

We can also have sweat pants and other things made. I choose the picture i selected because it was the best of them all and I liked how the picture was made. Yes, I am proud of the Toros because we have a mascot that represents our school.

  14. This experience makes me feel good because I know when the younger kids get older and they come to dream academy they will be what I created. I would like to have a real mascot just like the high school. The reason why I chose the picture that I chose because I felt like that was the best picture out of all the pictures. No, because what the point of having a mascot with no sports.

  15. When I was able to choose the school mascot I actually felt grateful. I had a say towards our school mascot for the first time. I felt good about the choices and the fact I was making history. I'd really like to see the mascot on fitted caps, and T-shirts. In a way I'm proud of the Toros,and I respect the talent of the artists for contributing towards making history.

  16. I didn't feel any experience. I wouldn't care if it was or wasn't displayed. I didn't select this picture. I was simple outnumbered. I think the picture is alright though cause it better than having no picture and having a unknown mascot.
