CAL Will Remain the Cadets
Thank you for your comments and suggestions regarding the possibility of changing the mascot. In the end, there is overwhelming support to maintain the current mascot. We have worked so hard to create a positive and progressive school experience that students, parents, and the community can be proud of. The last thing the school district would want is losing our current strong support of CAL and its traditions. Moving forward, we will talk with students about what it means to be a Cadet so that tradition can continue.
Thank you again for your input and "Go Cadets!"
