Rocky Point High School is a public school of the Rocky Point Union Free School District along the north shore of Long Island, located in Rocky Point, New York. It is the only high school in the district and serves grades 9-12. Through the onset of the 21st century, the high school and junior high school were incorporated in the same building, which now only houses the high school.

Prior to its formation in 1971, students from the Rocky Point area attending public school attended school in Port Jefferson, New York. The first graduating class in Rocky Point was 1975, because from 1971 to 1974 it was not yet considered a high school.
