Our Mascot
We Are The Crash
Our mascot meets all three of the mandatory USA Mascot requirements (not an actual thing):
Unique (no one else in the Triad has it)
Strong (everyone else in the Triad will fear it!)
Alliteration (it sounds great with the word "Covenant")
Most importantly, it captures our vision for the school.
The History of The Crash
Over the years, TCS has plowed forward in faith, and time and time again, we have crashed headfirst into the grace of God. There’s a group of animals that tends to do the same thing.
They are big, strong, and can run thirty miles an hour. There’s just one problem. They can see only thirty feet in front of them. But that limited vision doesn’t paralyze them. Despite not being able to see far away, they still run hard, without apprehension. And, just like us crashing into the grace of God, these animals often crash into anything that’s in their way.
As a school, we are raising up the next generations to become an unstoppable force of faith. We don’t have to pretend we know the future or that we can see more than thirty feet in front of us because we run with the confidence that God is stronger than anything that we will ever come against.
We don't have to be afraid of what we cannot see. We can run with faith because our Savior modeled it for us. In Jesus himself, divinity collided with humanity. Jesus’ love for us was so great, that he ran full speed into our world. His love for us was so great that he couldn't stop himself. In Jesus, God CRASHED into our world.
And so because of that, the mascot for The Covenant School is based on this wild animal that runs with blind faith. It’s based on the rhinoceros.
But the mascot is not just a singular rhino. Much like our school model, our mascot is a family of rhinos running together.
We are… The Covenant Crash! Go ‘Nos!
