Presque Isle High School is a secondary school for students located in Presque Isle, Maine, United States. Associated with Maine School Administrative District No. 1 (MSAD1), the school serves the communities of Castle Hill, Chapman, Mapleton, Presque Isle, and Westfield. In sports it is a class B school. It has about 530 students.

On September 11, 2011, it was announced that MSAD1 students, including PIHS students, could someday study in Beijing, People's Republic of China due to a growing partnership between the district and Niulanshan First Secondary School.[http://bangordailynews.com/2011/09/22/news/aroostook/presque-isle-area-school-district-forging-relationship-with-beijing-school/?ref=latest Presque Isle area school district forging relationship with Beijing school] Bangor Daily News, September 22, 2011 In 2014 the district announced that the school will offer a Chinese class and will also host six Chinese students for the 2014–2015 school year.Johnson, Scott Mitchell.

However, a few short years later, the Chinese language class was dropped from the curriculum after the district failed to renew the instructor's work visa, and to this date, no SAD1 student has studied abroad in Beijing.
