School Colors Reconsidered
Herald of May 15, 1969
A group of citizens plan to ask the Spring Cove School Board at its meeting Monday night to change the school colors that had been chosen in March for the new Spring Cove Junior High School.
According to Mrs. Joseph Oakes of Roaring Spring, secretary for the group, there has been “widespread dissent” with the colors selected by the board on the recommendation of its executive committee. Plans were made to circulate petitions intended to persuade the school board to change its mind. The petitions were sent home with junior high school pupils.
Mrs. Oakes said the colors favored by the pupils and the parents group are scarlet and gray–the Central High colors–and red and white. The students want to be identified and associated with the senior high school,” she said.
Blue and gold was recommended by the school board’s executive committee as “a compromise between Morrisons Cove Junior High and Roaring Spring Junior High, the two schools colors.
