Every year, numerous Tazewell High students climb to the summit of an impressive mountain. This mountain is our heritage; it is "our peak." Upon reaching the top, climbers can behold a breath-taking visage of our entire town and surrounding rural areas in the county.

Since the establishment of THS in 1952, students have taken an annual climb to the Peak. It is because of these yearly "pilgrimages" that the students have formed such a close bond with our mountain. Befittingly, our year-book is titled, "The Peak," in commemoration of the memories shared throughout the high school years - both attending school and at the Peak. Because of our close ties with "Our Peak," students will continue to cherish it as part of their memory of THS.
