Simon Gratz High School is a secondary school in Philadelphia and named after Simon Gratz (1840-1925), a member of the Philadelphia Board of Education.[2] Originally a public school directly operated by the School District of Philadelphia, Gratz has been operated as a charter school by Mastery Charter since September 2011. Students from the previous public school's enrollment area are eligible to attend. It is the fifth Philadelphia high school operated by Mastery.

In 2012, the school was removed from the Persistently Dangerous Schools List while under the new management of Mastery Charter Schools.[3]
