Bishop Watterson High School is a parochial, college preparatory high school located in Columbus, Ohio.

Bishop Watterson High School, founded in 1954 under the auspices of the Diocese of Columbus, is a co-educational college preparatory institution serving the Central Ohio area. Bishop Watterson High School was the first co-educational diocesan high school in Franklin County. It opened its doors in the fall of 1954 in honor of Bishop John Ambrose Watterson, the second Bishop of Columbus who served until April 17, 1899.

The school's Latin Club functions as a local chapter of both the Ohio Junior Classical League (OJCL) and National Junior Classical League (NJCL).

Sports that are offered include baseball, basketball, bowling, cross country, diving, field hockey, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, volleyball and wrestling. Watterson does not have their own football stadium due to lack of space. Instead Watterson rents out the football field at Columbus North International School for their home games.
