No longer The Rebels as in Johnny Reb at Denver's South High School. Its the Gargoyles now. Pretty silly and sad at the same time.

the old Southwest High School in Fort Worth were the Rebels.

mascot was a Confederate cavalry officer.

large black student body — name and mascot have to go, racist.

Now the school is (or was the Cavaliers)and mascot was dressed as a 17th century English cavalry officer.

I never could figure out why they did that. It cost a lot of money essential for a minor semantic change.

Strange the web site for the Denver South High School does not show any Gargoyles athletic tee shirts and other gear.

Arvada HS west of Denver used to be the Redskins. Now they are the Reds. Guess commies are OK.
