The Eudora Cardinal
After decades of using other well-known cardinal images, the district began using its own Power Cardinal in 1998. Retired EHS art teacher Gary Hinman designed the mascot image, which now appears throughout the district and community.
This image is legally owned by Eudora Schools USD 491 and is protected as the Power Cardinal through the Kansas Secretary of State with a service-mark. Businesses, organizations or private individuals wishing to use the Eudora Power Cardinal image must first seek permission from the district office. Unauthorized use of the Cardinal is not allowed.
