Merrit Island High

Merritt Island High School – Merritt Island, Florida

At Merritt Island High School, artist Jesse Travis created multiple murals that bring the campus spirit and programs to life.

One mural features the Senior Mustangs — a powerful depiction of the school’s iconic mascot charging forward in bold black and gold. This design energizes the space and symbolizes strength, pride, and tradition for the graduating class.

Another mural celebrates the school’s AFEX program (Astronauts for Exploration) with a striking design of a rocket launching through the reflection of a space helmet visor, blending Earth and the cosmos. This artwork connects directly to the school’s strong ties to science, technology, and the Space Coast community.

Together, these murals enhance the visual identity of Merritt Island High, motivating students and reflecting both their school pride and aspirations for the future.
