Fort Vancouver High School, known as FVHS and Fort Vancouver High School Center for International Studies,[1] is a public high school located in Vancouver, Washington. FVHS is named after Fort Vancouver, an early trading outpost built in 1824-25 near the banks of the Columbia River, a few miles from where the school is located. The FVHS symbol is the Trapper, in reference to the fur trade in the early 19th century by such groups as Hudson's Bay Company voyageurs.
