Superior High School (SHS) is one of two high schools in Superior, Wisconsin (the other being Maranatha Academy). The School District of Superior opened SHS in 1965 as Superior Senior High School (SSHS) to replace East and Central High Schools. Those schools became middle schools, which were both closed and torn down in 2003. (An office building built on part of Central's site was completed in 2008 and a housing project was built on East's site, the last lot being developed in 2012).
The high school serves about 1,600 students in grades 9–12 with a staff of around 150. SHS' mission is to "Provide all children with the relevant tools to develop a foundation for living, learning and working successfully."
Superior High School offers a wide selection of classes. Several selections in English, History/Social Studies, Science, Mathematics, Foreign Language, Music, Physical Education, Business, Art, and Technical Education classes are available. Superior High School also offers many Advanced Placement courses, including: AP Literature and Composition, AP Calculus, AP United States History, AP World History, AP Physics, AP Chemistry, AP Biology, and AP Psychology. It also offers several College in the Schools (CITS) courses, which give students the opportunity to earn college credits through Lake Superior College, courses offered in this category include: CITS Precalculus, Communications, and Anatomy and Physiology.
