A. S. Staley High School was a school for African American students in Americus, Georgia.[1][2][3][4] It was the last segregated high school in Americus when it graduated its last class in 1968.

It was one of 16 distinguished schools for blacks selected to participate in a Rockefeller Foundation study. South Carolina's Museum of Education featured the school in an exhibition.[5] The school primarily taught manual and domestic education. Anthony's High School for whites was constructed about the same time.
