Beginning in 2005 the school began removing iconography that included images of the Johnny Reb mascot and the Confederate Battle Flag. In December 2020 leadership in the school took nominations for a new mascot. Three potential mascots were introduced to be voted on by the school's patrons, Knights, Express, and Cardinals.[4] On February 26, 2021, the school announced it had chosen Knights to be the school's new mascot beginning in the 2021–2022 school year.[5]
