The West Mifflin North High School mascot THE VIKING has been left unattended and uncared for in the woods behind the site of the bonfires at the high school. A piece of all those that attended West Mifflin North, remain with the Viking. We find it disrespectful of the love and honor we invested in what the Viking respresented and will always continue to represent. We, the all-inclusive classes of WMN, wish to remove the Viking from the woods on the grounds of West Mifflin High School where it has been laying since the merger of WMN and WMS. When we were students, we learned the value of school spirit. We now ask that we be permitted to continue that same school spirit by removing the VIKING, restoring it and placing it in a place to be decided by the majority, once the restoration is complete. Please sign with your name (present and at the time of graduation) and year of graduation.

The current level of support confirms that we have enough leverage to request a formal meeting with the school district administration. I am finalizing a letter to the superintendent detailing our restoration plan and the logistical requirements for removing the statue from the woods.

So sad to see it sitting there abandoned. This needs to be moved and fixed up asap!

Total disgrace. We put so much effort into that mascot back in the day.

That statue is a piece of our history. Leaving it to rot in the woods is just plain disrespectful to everyone who walked those halls.

Restore the Viking. It belongs at the new school or back where it can be seen.

My dad went there and he said he remembers that thing standing proud. Why bury our school spirit in the trees? Ridiculous.
