Board adopts Liberty Hill Elementary patriot-themed logo, selects eagle design
Summary
After staff presented three logo options that avoid a human figure, the board approved a patriotic eagle mark with a star-accented head (logo 2) and retained a full core image for other uses; the decision was made without objection.
The board adopted a new logo package for Liberty Hill Elementary School that centers on a stylized young eagle in patriotic colors and avoids a human figure as the primary mascot image.
Stephanie Knott, the district's public information officer, said the district asked a graphic artist to prepare options that reflect the history of the school site while avoiding human figures so the mark represents the entire student body. Knott presented three variations: a full vertical image showing the eagle with a foot on a cannonball, a square head-only mark with star accents, and a horizontal wordmark-style logo.
Several board members suggested adjustments to color and the prominence of a gray cannonball; the board discussed whether to retain the cannonball as a historical detail. The board member who identified herself as Miss Don asked whether the core image could be used on apparel while a simpler primary logo would serve broader uses; Knott confirmed the designers produce multiple variations for a "brand locker" including PNG, EPS and vector files for different sizes and applications.
Board members favored the second option, a square head mark with star accents, and by voice vote approved the core image and logo 2 without objection. Knott said staff will finalize the logo package and return with a full set of files and brand guidelines for district use.
The board's approval was taken during the regular meeting; board members did not request further public comment on the logo that night.
