The athletic teams are known as the Reynoldsburg Raiders, and the school colors are purple and gold.

[7][8][9] The earliest known about RHS is a log cabin that served as the first school in Truro Township around 1819.

By 1858, a two-story building was completed on the intersection of Jackson Street and Broadway Drive which housed The Reynoldsburg Union Academy.

Organized in 1868 under superintendent Dr. Darlington J. Snyder, the school had 12 grades and graduated its first class of six students in 1871.

Now, RHS has two campuses of high schools, one on Livingston Avenue, which was opened in 1961, the other on Summit Road opened in 2011 when Reynoldsburg redesigned the high school system, using interest-based "academies" for students to get a better learning experience.
