PUFFIN WITH PRIDE

Kudos to Peterson Elementary School whose new shirt logo is “Puffin with Pride.” The Kodiak Perspective is heartened to see that the school is teaching wholesome American values, to question authority, to throw off the shackles of tyranny, and to be really cool smoking that ciggy.

Perhaps the wordsmith did not intend or realize the pro smoking message, but it is hard to imagine that the connotation was lost on everyone involved in the design.

America wasn’t built on being passive sheep, and here in Kodiak we are proud to teach those values that made this country great to the next generation of patriots.

"Don’t be a “hater”. Bloggers put time and thought into their postings. You may disagree, but please don’t disrespect."

A statement quoted from your blog.

I put it back to you.

Your statements have no basis in fact. Perhaps you should follow your own advice and research the facts before criticizing.

The Peterson Elementary USED to be "Puffin with Pride". That's gone. Peterson is now "Home of the Proud Puffins."

Feel free to stop by the office. They'd be glad to sell you a shirt. You'll feel good about being up-to-date, AND you'll be supporting the students of Peterson Elementary School.

I attended Peterson in the early 90's, we were "puffin with pride", however I did not put the two together until just now. Not sure that the elementary level kids will pick up on that wordplay.
