Highland Springs High School is a public high school located in the East End of Henrico County, Virginia. It was one of the first high schools established in the Greater Richmond Region.

Replacement school

After 70 years in its Oak Avenue facility, a new Highland Springs High School building opened for the 2021-22 school year. The new building replaced the original high school building with one built nearby. The project was part of a two-school replacement initiative by Henrico County Public Schools, which also opened a new J.R. Tucker High School for the 2021-22 school year. The two new schools cost about $100 million each. Both new schools were built on the football fields adjacent to their old buildings, and new football fields were constructed.

The old Highland Springs High School building — built in 1952 and renovated in 2008 — is being repurposed as the Oak Avenue Complex. "The Oak" will be HCPS' first full-service community school hub, part of a strategy to connect students and families with community services. It will add dedicated areas for a variety of academic and after-school programs and create a one-stop shop where students and families can connect with groups providing services they need.
