Quincy High School (Quincy, Washington)
Quincy High School is a public high school serving 770 students in grades 9–12 located in Quincy, Washington, United States.[2] The current principal is Dr. Marcus Pimpleton.[3] It's athletics nickname is The Jacks. This is a reference to the black-tailed jackrabbits which once inhabited the area.

The jackrabbits were hunted so frequently, they quickly became a scarcity. Now legally protected, the jackrabbit population is slowly returning. In homage of the creatures who were nearly hunted to extinction, Quincy High School has since made the black-tailed jackrabbit their official mascot.[citation needed] Quincy High is known for its Career and Technical Education programs that include:
Quincy High was recognized in 2012, by the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, for efforts that have significantly reduced the achievement gap[4] in test scores for underserved populations. References
