KANSAS CITY, Mo. â Shawnee Mission North High School is getting a mascot makeover.
The school will now be known as the Shawnee Mission North High School Bison.
The change comes after protests about the school s nickname and use of Indian images.
It will take about a year to develop a new logo and make changes to Indian images inside and outside the school building, a district spokesman said.
