Historically it has had a strong academic and sports presence in the city. For example, in 2006-2007, Paschal produced 18 National Merit Scholarship semi-finalists, which was not only more than any other high school in the Fort Worth Independent School District, but more than the entire Dallas Independent School District (10). For the 2007–2008 school year, it has 24 National Merit Scholarship semi-finalists.

It is the only high school represented by a flag on the moon, planted there by astronaut Alan Bean, Class of 1950, on the Apollo 12 mission (1969).

Paschal High School achieved a degree of notoriety in 1985, when a gang called "Legion of Doom" was active at the school.
