Parkview High School, "Home of the Panthers" is located in Lilburn, Georgia in Gwinnett County. It is often regarded as school of many achievements, both in academics and athletics.
School History: The early 1970s saw Gwinnett County lead the nation in growth. This phenomenal growth rate produced overcrowding in the school system leaving South Gwinnett and Berkmar too crowded to accommodate students. So, in 1975, construction began on a new school. With a clear view of Stone Mountain, the school assumed the name of Parkview. Today, the once uninterrupted view no longer exists. New neighborhoods, businesses, and trees have since obstructed the view. A panther was chosen as school mascot and orange and white became the school colors winning out over the very popular blue. The doors opened in 1976.
The school eventually expanded until it was filled above capacity and then took over the adjacent middle school, Trickum Middle School to make more room for itself during the 2006-2007 school year.
Recent Events and Controversy: Boy's Soccer Coach Tracy Crouch was the manager of the 2005 championship team, but was removed from his position in 2006, after comments made to the media regarding his 2006 team. He claimed the returning members of the state championship team had grown complacent over their victory. He was temporarily replaced by Judson Hamby, who is now the Varsity Girl's manager. Now in charge of the Varsity boy's squad is Michael Tolmich. The 2007 season is his first year in charge of the Panthers.
Parkview Football Coach Cecil Flowe became the subject of controversy in spring 2006 after exhibiting suspicious behavior while chaperoning at the Prom, which led many to believe he had been under the influence of alcohol. An investigation was started by the Georgia High School Association, but Coach Flowe was not served with any punishment, as he was found to be using prescription medicine at the time which could have possibly accounted for his behavior.
Athletic Success: Parkview is known as a school of great athletic achievement, especially in recent years. In 2005, Sports Illustrated ranked Parkview number 7 in its list of the "Top Sports Schools Nationwide." Parkview maintains a fierce rivalry in athletics with neighboring Brookwood High School.
Football: The Parkview Football team went undefeated from 2000-2002, winning three straight AAAAA state championships. The team was also state champion in 1997.
Cross Country: The Parkview Boy's Cross Country team has won three straight state championships, including the 2006 state championship.
Soccer: The Parkview Boy's Soccer team has won six state championships, recently winning the 2005 state championship.
Swim and Dive: The Parkview Boy's Swim and Dive team holds the record for most state championships at Parkview, boasting wins in 1995, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2006.
Baseball: The Parkview Baseball Team won the State Championship in 1996, 2001 and 2002.
Academic Success: Along with athletics, Parkview has also been praised for its academic victories. Several clubs have won state and even nationwide tournaments.
Parkview also has been honored for its high scores in standardized testing. In 2006, a total of 14 students became National Merit Scholarship semi-finalists.
In 2006, Parkview's American College Test scores were the highest in Gwinnett County.
Notable Alumni: Jeff Francoeur - Atlanta Braves right-fielder.
Josh Wolff - Starting member of the 2000 United States men's national soccer team as well as the 2002 and 2006 United States World Cup team.
Brad Lester - Auburn University running back.
