Downes Elementary Third-Graders Name Newark Police Mascot, "SOAR"!
Join us in congratulating Downes Elementary School third-graders who submitted the winning name for the Newark PD Mascot Naming Contest.
Join us in congratulating Downes Elementary School third-graders Rose Clemens, Ella Richardson, and Violet Taneyhill who submitted the winning name for the Newark Police Department Mascot Naming Contest. Their creative name, SOAR, which stands for Safety Officer Always Ready, was selected from over 2,000 entries submitted by elementary school students across Newark.
To celebrate this amazing achievement, Downes Elementary School hosted a pep rally last Friday, welcoming SOAR to the school community. The cafeteria erupted with cheers as SOAR made a grand entrance, high-fiving students and distributing T-shirts, all while spreading joy and excitement among the Downes Sharks.
Congratulations to our talented winners for their incredible contribution
