MILLIS Last month, the Cleveland Indians followed the Washington Football Team s lead and announced that they will be changing their name starting in 2022. It would be the first name change for the franchise since 1914, when the Cleveland franchise went by the Naps.

Over the summer, 2014 Millis High graduate Rebekah Kohls started a petition asking the Millis School Committee to retire the Mohawk mascot, which has been used for the school s sports teams since the school was established in 1960.
The petition asks for the School Committee to “retire, acknowledge and apologize for the use of the Mohawk as a mascot, name and any associated logos from the Millis Public School Systems.”
