Southern Cayuga High School is a secondary school (grades 7-12) in Poplar Ridge, Cayuga County, New York.
SCHS is operated by Southern Cayuga Central School District.
In 2003 it had some 585 students and 45 teachers. The student body was 98% white, and 24% were eligible for free lunch, higher than the state average of 15%. Its New York State School Report Card reports that it exceeded all three required standards (graduation in English and Mathematics, and dropout rate) in 2001.
The school's student-produced newspaper is called The Source, and is associated with a one-semester journalism class.
Southern Cayuga is one of eleven places in the United States that will receive a sapling from the tree outside of Anne Frank's house.
As of 2012, the school has moved to one campus, and Emily Howland Elementary is going to be auctioned off.
