Mascot/School Colors
Since its inception in 1962, the mascot of North Hardin High School has been a Trojan and the school's colors are blue and white. The student body and faculty of the consolidation schools, Vine Grove and Rineyville High Schools, both voted on their new mascot and school colors in the 1961-1962 school year. Choices for the mascot also included the rockets, patriots, and the devils. Both Vine Grove and Rineyville's mascot prior to the consolidation were Devils (Vine Grove was the Blue Devils and Rineyville the Red Devils). To this day, students of North Hardin are proud of the mascot's heritage.

“Our frigate takes fire,
The other asks if we demand quarter?
If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
