South Carleton High School is a high school situated in the southwestern sector of the city of Ottawa, in the town of Richmond, Ontario. The school is under the jurisdiction of the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board. The SCHS attendance boundaries cover a major section of the southern part of the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board. Students come from all over the southwestern sector of the city but mainly from the communities of Stittsville, Manotick, Richmond, Riverside South, North Gower, Munster, Kars, Fallowfield, Ashton, Burritts Rapids and the area connecting these communities. SCHS feeder schools include Goulbourn Middle School, Kars on the Rideau Public School, and A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School.

The school opened its doors in 1952 to 263 students and 13 teachers under the leadership of its first principal, W.W. Powell. South Carleton's 60th anniversary was celebrated in 2012.

South Carleton has a wide range of athletic activities. Its alpine ski team has won 8 OFSAA titles to date, including the boys' team with 2 in 2002 as well as 2008, 2009 and 2015 and their first girls' team title in 2012 with followups in 2014 and 2015. It has collected a grand total of 21 team and 14 individual medals at OFSAA since 1999. The two level 1 teams have now won 5 consecutive NCSSAA titles each with the girls then winning OFSAA slalom in 3 of the last 4 seasons.

Its wrestling program has won the NCSSAA championship for the past several years and produces nearly a dozen OFSAA wrestlers each year. This has led to the coining of the term "wrestle with the best".
