The mission statement of Rockwall High School is "Rockwall High School values quality education and strives to be an exemplary school by providing students with the tools needed to allow them to become confident, self-directed, lifelong learners."
The current principal of the school is Dr. Mark LeMaster. The school mascot is the yellowjacket and the school colors are orange and white. Rockwall has been all about orange ever since the high school was built. Herman Utley Freshman Center uses the same colors(orange and white) and mascot(the yellowjacket). Cain Middle School also used orange in their school colors(orange and purple). Not until Rockwall Heath High School was opened in 2005 that new colors were brought into Rockwall (red, black and white) giving Rockwall High School a new rival and companion at the same time.
