Bonny Eagle and the surrounding area is said to have achieved its unusual name when a Scotsman (as the area formerly had high concentration of Scottish people), standing on a bridge over the Saco River, looked up and saw an eagle. Supposedly, the Scotsman remarked "what a bonny eagle," bonny being a synonym for beautiful. Thus, the school's mascot is the Scots. No other high school in the nation has the Scots as their mascot.Fact|date=April 2008.
