Waycross High School was a high school in the city of Waycross, Georgia, United States. In 1993, the Waycross School Board dissolved its charter and was absorbed by the Ware County School System. As a result, Ware County was able to keep a large grant it had been promised, with which to build a much bigger Ware County Senior High school.
The school was located on Ava Street, at the present site of the Central Baptist Church.
The Ava Street Waycross Senior High was started in 1936. It graduated its first class in 1939 and its last in 1966. At the midterm of the 1966 school year, the new Waycross High School was completed and moved into during Christmas break. Thus 1967 was the first year at the new Waycross High School, which later became a middle school. In 1993 the Waycross School System was absorbed by the Ware County School system. Waycross graduated its last class in 1994.
Waycross won the Georgia State AA football championship in 1960, 1961, and 1977. In 1981 they won the Georgia State Class AAA football title.
Waycross High was also built into a track and field powerhouse under the leadership of Coach Chuck McKenny. The Bulldogs won the AA State Championship in 1970, AAA State Runner-Up in 1971, and the AAA State Championship in 1972.
The yearbook was named the Turpicone (turpentine-pine cone; Ware County was the largest producer of naval stores in the world).
