A school board in Washington voted unanimously on Wednesday to end the use of Indian mascots in Seattle.

Only one high school is affected, however. West Seattle High has until September 1 to change its "Indian" mascot.

The Kansas State Board of Education also considered mascots yesterday but left the decision up to each individual school.
