The Victor Lauriston school teams go by the name "Lions". The school crest pictures a fierce lion, climbing the highest hill in the area. The school colours are dark red, light grey and white.

The school is named for Victor Lauriston, perhaps most famous for his book, "Romantic Kent", a history of Kent County. In his book Mr. Lauriston wrote of the early settlements and the different townships that make up modern Chatham-Kent.
