 The six elementary schools in the Brainerd Public School District will soon share the same mascot once the planned district construction projects after last year's referendum are complete. Currently the six kindergarten through fourth grade schools Baxter, Garfield, Harrison, Lowell, Niswa and Riverside all have their own unique mascots. When the blueprint 181 building projects area is complete the elementary schools will all take on the high school's mascot and identify as the warriors. According to the district the mascot changes are being made in order to create consistency and unity within the district. Construction on Niswa, Harrison and the new elementary school in Baxter are scheduled to be completed by the fall of 2020.
