Palau High School (PHS) is a senior high school in Koror City, Palau. It is the country's only public high school,[1] and the first high school established in Palau.[2] The Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) accredits the school.[1]

It opened as Palau Intermediate School in 1946. It previously was only for grades 6-9, but it was renamed and became a high school in 1962.[1]

Its current building was built between the late 1960s to the middle of the 1970s, a period when several other public high schools were built in the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands.[3]
