PVSS unanimously voted for their school mascot to be a hawk.

The school board has been working on changing the team name “Saints and Sinners” because it has many negative undertones.[1] As of May 2021, the PVSS sports teams has changed their name to the Hawks.[2] Settling on a logo that displays a red hawk perched on the P of the PVSS.
