Mascot

Carson High School's mascot is the Senator, indicative of Carson City being the capital of Nevada. Currently the mascot is seen to have one side of his mouth open, like a peanut with one side crushed. This is because the mascot previously had a cigar in his mouth, however due to Political Correctness the cigar has been removed which has led to a perpetual scowl on the face of the Senator.
