Northmont High School is part of Northmont City Schools. The school is located in Clayton, Ohio, and serves 1766 students from the communities of northern Montgomery County, including Clayton, Englewood, Phillipsburg, and Union.
The school's mascot is the Thunderbolt, but its student populace are more colloquially known as the T-Bolts or just the Bolts. This moniker was unintentionally gained from a basketball commentator in the school system's early years (circa 1960's), who, while watching the high school boy's team racing back and forth across the court, exclaimed that they zipping back and forth like "thunderbolts."
