Warner Robins High School is a high school in Warner Robins, Georgia, United States. It was established in 1944 and enrolls approximately 1,690 students.

The mascot, the Demon, was originally adopted during World War II in honor of the 7th Fighter Squadron at Robins Air Force Base which earned the title "the Screamin' Demons" in the South Pacific.
