The school expanded its campus in the spring of 2014 to build a multimillion-dollar building for the award-winning band program. The band hall is officially named Zervakos Hall, named after the late principal who opened the school, Peter Zervakos.

Northview was the recipient of the State AAAAA Governor's Cup in 2004 and 2005. They were also recognized as an AP Honor School by the College Board in 2009. Atlanta Magazine gave Northview the Best High School Award three years in a row (2006-2008).

Northview made it to the playoffs for football in the first time in school history in 2014, with a record of 7-3. The Titans lost their first playoff game vs. Milton.
In the past year, the Titans' cross country team brought home the girls' State Championship, as well as a boys' and girls' Region Championship. This was followed by a track & field season in which many of Northview's athletes, primarily distance runners, placed in the top 10 in the state rankings. Sophomore Lindsay Billings added a State Championship title in the 3200m run to an already decorated running career that included an individual State Title and an individual Region Title for cross country, as well as many runner-up performances.
