Norwood High School (NHS) is a four-year public secondary school located in Norwood, Massachusetts, within Norfolk County. The school is the only high school within the Norwood Public Schools district and is located at 245 Nichols Street.
The Norwood Mustangs are a member of the Bay State Conference, a league within the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association. They have a traditional rivalry with Dedham High School and Walpole High School.
In 2016, Norwood explored a move to the Tri-Valley League, similar to Dedham's move after the 2015-16 academic year. Norwood had the second-smallest enrollment of BSC schools during the 2015-16 year with 967, less than half of the largest schools in the conference.
Norwood High's baseball team won the Division 1 state championship in 2015, snapping a 72-year drought between titles.
