RADNOR The Raider nickname wonât be coming back to Radnor.
After voting to ditch its long-time Raider nickname last September and weeks after the administration said it would not consider using it as an option, the school board this week once again rejected any consideration of using the Raider nickname.
In a six-to-three vote, the board killed a plan that would allow the Raider name to be considered along with several other possible names. The controversy is due to links between the name Raider and Native American imagery that has developed over the past several decades. For the first few decades the school used the Raider nickname, there was no connection with Native American imagery.
World renowned detective Sherlock Holmes and his colleague Dr Watson are assigned to unravel the mystery surrounding the untimely death of Sir Charles Baskerville in this brilliantly farcical adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic novel.
