Neshaminy to appeal state ruling on controversial nickname

The judge reversed a Pa. Human Relations Commission finding that barred the district from using imagery including negative Native American stereotypes.

The total covers a six-year span and is expected to increase as Neshaminy appeals the latest decision.

The Pa. Human Relations Commission says "Redskins" is a slur for Native Americans, but will allow a Bucks County school district to use the nickname for its sports teams.
