William Tennent High School is a public high school serving grades 9 through 12, located in Warminster, Pennsylvania, US.
The school is the only public high school serving Warminster and Upper Southampton townships and Ivyland borough in the Centennial School District, located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
The school was named in honor of William Tennent, an early American slave owner, Presbyterian minister and founder of the original Log College, a very early theological school located in the colony of Pennsylvania.

The site of the original Log College is located near the modern high school
