High school mosaic immortalizes Warrior mascot

SIOUX CENTER—Sioux Center High School students were integral in creating a beautiful mosaic tile mural of the Sioux Center Warriors mascot, thanks to grant funding. If you walk through the atrium to the entrance of the gym at Sioux Center High School, you’ll likely notice a large piece of artwork composed of intricately arranged tiles that form the shape of the Sioux Center Warriors mascot, Scor. At second glance, you’ll see that a significant portion of Scor’s armor is a stunningly bright shade of orange. If an upperclassman walked by, they might tell you that they came up with the concept for the mural and helped create it. If an industrial tech student walks by, they’ll point out the custom-made stand they built to hold it. And if Andrew Hobson, the high school’s art teacher, walked by, he’d tell you even more.
