**Grand Island Senior High ** is the only high school in the Grand Island Public Schools (GIPS) system in Nebraska, United States. It has had several buildings over its history. The official mascot is the Islander, a tall man in a tropical grass skirt.

History

In 1908, a new building was built for high school students at 10th Street and Walnut Street, although high school education in an all-grades building had been going on before that. In 1925, a new building was constructed at 504 Elm Street; the 1908 building was turned into a junior high school. In 1955, a fourth building was constructed in the 2100 block of Lafayette Avenue and its predecessor became Walnut Junior High. In the late 1990s, a two-story section was added onto the main building. GISH adopted an "academy" system for the 2019-2020 school year, making students choose one of five tracks to focus on. As a part of this system, Grand Island Senior High has expanded to three total campuses, including a technically focused Career Pathways Institute, and an education, law and public safety focused Wyandotte Learning Center.

Athletics

Islander athletic teams compete in the Heartland Athletic Conference.

Performing arts

Grand Island has three competitive show choirs, the mixed-gender "Ultimate Image" and "Future Image" as well as the all-female "Sweet Revelation". The program also hosts an annual competition, the Islander Invitational.
