Glacier Peak High School is a high school in Snohomish, Washington, United States, operated by the Snohomish School District. The high school's colors are navy blue, silver and white, and the mascot is the grizzly bear. Glacier Peak was opened in 2008 to relieve overcrowding at Snohomish High School; the 230,000-square-foot (21,000 m2) facility designed by NAC Architecture and built by Lydig Construction.
The school opened in an almost completed state on September 3, 2008 for grades 9-11.[2][3] It was completely finished by January 2009. Grades 9-12 have attended GPHS since September 2009, and the first senior class graduated on June 17, 2010.
GPHS has a large arts department; students can choose from performing and fine arts classes. A performing arts center provides a venue for GPHS's performances, including plays and musicals as well as jazz band, concert band, and choir concerts.
