Reservoir High School is a medium-sized co-educational, year 7 to 12 public high school, with approximately 700 students in Reservoir, Victoria, Australia.

The school has a well established International Student Program. The program includes students from a range of countries such as China, Vietnam, Nepal, Thailand, India and Saudi Arabia.

Reservoir High School is one of a select group of secondary colleges to be accredited to offer advanced learning classes (SEAL or Select Entry Accelerated Learning).

In 2021, Reservoir High was recognised by the Age newspaper as a 'School that Excels'[1] due to the continued improvement of its students' achievements and excellent results in the Victorian Certificate of Education. The school's improving achievement is based on a culture of respect and firm discipline, underpinned by strengths based restorative practices and strong focus on the straightforward 'Gradual Release of Responsibility' (GRR) Model . of teaching.

Reservoir High has undergone a renewal of its teaching spaces and grounds. This includes the construction of a 250 seat Performing Arts Centre, a new Senior School building, 5 external competition grade netball courts (as well as the 4 internal courts as part of the joint use agreement on the Darebin Sports Stadium) and added in 2022 a new Visual Arts and Technology building.[2] The facilities support all students to achieve at their best in a wide range of pathway programs which are designed to promote the passions, talents and interests of a diverse variety of students.
