Silverton High School is a public high school built in Silverton, Oregon, United States. It is in the Silver Falls School District, and competes in the Mid-Willamette Conference of the Oregon School Activities Association.

Silverton High School is unusual in that it has currently has two campuses. In 1994 voters passed a bond levy for construction of Phase I of a two phase project to build a new high school building. The new starter high school was constructed on Pine Street in Silverton. It was completed in 1997 with a capacity for approximately 500 students. The initial bond levy for Phase II, however, failed, leaving the Silver Falls School District with two high school campuses. As of 1997, the roughly 350 freshmen attended the new campus, and were routinely bussed to the old campus for some higher level classes and electives. As of November 2006, a new bond levy passed and Phase II of the high school was slated to begin. The campus will remain divided until its completion.
