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 the Ivyland borough in the Centennial School District, located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The school replaced the Southampton High School located in Upper Southampton.
The school was named in honor of William Tennent, Presbyterian minister and founder of the original Log College, a very early theological school located in the colony of Pennsylvania. The first William Tennent High School building was located across the street from the current high school and when both were in use, the buildings were called William Tennent Intermediate High School (grades 9 and 10) and William Tennent Senior High School (grades 11 and 12) (the current school). The site of the original Log College is located near the modern high school.
