Adrienne C. Nelson High School (ANHS, colloquially Nelson High School) is a 4-year public high school in Happy Valley, Oregon. The school is the fourth and newest public high school in the North Clackamas School District.

History
Adrienne Nelson High School was proposed to relieve ongoing crowding issues at Clackamas High School in a $523 million bond in 2016. The building itself was built in 2010 as a middle school with the intentions of eventually turning it into a high school. In 2019, renovations to the school began for it to better fit a high school environment. The middle school was relocated to a new building in 2021.

The renovations included 16 classrooms, a performing arts center, athletics center, track and field, tennis courts, and a health center. ANHS opened for students in 2021 after COVID-19 restrictions were lifted.

Nelson High School was named after Adrienne Nelson, the first African American woman to serve in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon.
