Quincy Junior/Senior High School, located in the mountain community of Quincy, California, serves as a combined secondary institution providing education for students in grades 7 through 12. As a central part of the Plumas Unified School District, the school is situated in a rural, scenic region of the Sierra Nevada mountains, which plays a significant role in fostering a close-knit school culture. The institution focuses on preparing students for post-secondary success by offering a blend of rigorous core academics, career-technical education (CTE) pathways, and a variety of extracurricular activities that cater to the diverse interests of its student body.
The school is deeply integrated into the Plumas County community, often leveraging its location to offer unique outdoor and environmental learning opportunities. By housing both junior high and high school students on one campus, the administration aims to create a continuous academic environment that supports social-emotional growth and provides leadership opportunities for older students to mentor younger ones. The school’s presence is supported by the broader resources of the Plumas County Office of Education, which emphasizes local student achievement and community-based support systems.
