It is part of the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System. The current building was completed in 2001 for $28 million. The school's mascot is Squawk The Hawk, and the school's colors are red and gold, though many sports teams prefer the more 'stylish' black and red. A special tutoring and peer advising program was implemented after "inadequate performance" in the 2003 No Child Left Behind tests, which helped to bring the school up to all federal benchmarks by 2005.<ref>[http://www.ed.gov/news/newsletters/extracredit/2005/10/1025.html] United States Department of Education: October 25, 2005 - Rossview High School Under NCLB: "Our Scores Skyrocketed"] excerpts from an article appearing in the Clarksville [TN] Leaf-Chronicle (October 22, 2006)</ref> The school far exceeds state achievement score averages for each grade for Reading/Language arts as well as for Math.<ref>[http://www.greatschools.net/modperl/achievement/tn/2166] Gateway Test Results at Greatschools.net. retrieved October 19, 2006</ref>
