Controversy
In early 2012, Plain Local District phased out its logo after Morehead State University claimed that the district had illegally used its logo.
Superintendent Brent May says the district removed the logo from its website, fliers and other correspondence. The website now features an outline of an eagle with its wings raised; however, the stolen eagle image also is featured on the GlenOak High School gymnasium floor, which would be costly to change.
The attorney representing the university’s interests says he understands that financial burden and would ask that the logo be changed whenever the school replaces the gym floor.
