The school colors are represented by black, red and silver. The Red hawk is the schools mascot, a name inspired by the Blythewood areas common bird of prey, the red-tailed hawk. This powerful bird symbolizes determination, courage and strength, as well as highlights the schools achievements in academics and extracurricular activities.
