Logos: Harmony Logo Reminds Me Of Something
Three Harmony charter public schools are on the new USNews list of best high schools -- happy Charter Schools Week, everyone -- and the Harmony logo reminds me of something I'd seen before.... I'm just not sure what it is. Best Western? IHOP? Hampton Inn?
PS: Having charter school week the same week as teacher appreciation week is either brilliant or awkward. Not sure which.
These are Gulen schools, just for everyone's edification. The followers of Fethullah Gulen run the largest chain of charter schools in the U.S., though the fact that it's a chain is semi-covert.

Looks a lot like IHOP’s logo to me. Which has either made me hungry, or nauseous thinking of the grease involved, I can’t decide.
And Charter Schools have a week honoring them now? Hopefully it doesn’t overshadow teacher appreciation week.
