Nyanga High School is a high school in Zimbabwe. The school falls under the broad category of church run schools called mission schools.

In the case of Nyanga High, the missionaries are Marist Brothers, a religious order founded by Saint Marcellin Champagnat in France in the 18th Century. Other Marist schools in Zimbabwe include Kutama College and Marist Dete. Nyanga has grown from strength to strength both academically and sportingly and over the years has overtaken the likes of Kutama College to become undoubtedly the best school in the country.

Marist schools in general and Nyanga High in particular have established a reputation of excellent academic results coupled with sterling sporting achievements^{[citation needed]}. This is achieved through a programme of rigorous self-discipline.Former headmaster, Peter Muzawazi was instrumental in the implementation of these qualities. Currently, the basketball team is ranked second in Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe Herald). The school is currently in the top two at both O level and A level.

Through the acquisition of a luxurious ERF coach in 1997, the school has come to represent flamboyance, elegance and style. Some of the more notable achievements are as follows.
