Rockets soar with new spirit logo and slogan
A collaboration between Bay High varsity boys basketball coach, Jared Shetzer, Bay High Principal Jason Martin, and BHS senior Grace Harms has breathed new spirit into Bay High School's athletics program. Coach Shetzer wanted a concept that would bring the school together, and he came up with "One Rocket Nation" as a slogan.
Principal Jason Martin liked the idea, and he also wanted a fundraiser for the Youth Philanthropy Fellowship (YPF), a student service group he advises. Enter Grace Harms, an award-winning student artist well known for her talent at graphic design.
Grace designed the One Rocket Nation logo that now emblazons a pair of school T-shirts, one on a blue background and one on a white background, for students to wear at home and away games. The shirts sell as a pair for $12, with proceeds benefitting all the good work done by YPF.
Grace followed up the T-shirt project by painting the logo on the Bay High gymnasium wall.
