Mascot controversy
Following other schools and organizations in California, it was decided that the fate of the mascot, the Indian, would be voted on by the Napa Valley Unified School District Board in 2017. Protests and controversies delayed the vote until March 2018. On 22 March 2018, the school board voted to drop the Indian mascot.

During the first days of the 2018–2019 school year, the students of Napa High School voted the "Grizzly" as the new mascot.
