The bear print is next to the name over the front door. This is probably a residue of the school/s mascot when it was a full elementary school. From about 2004 to 2010 it was only K thru 5. But in the 30s, 40s 50s and 60s it was a full school, with athletic programs that competed against other schools in the area.
