Mackay State High School opened on 1st January 1912 in what is now part of the TAFE complex. It was one of the first state high schools opened in Queensland and recognized the growth that was taking place in Mackay and the Pioneer Valley. The school moved to its present site in 1963.
Since that time, it has continued to develop with the town, establishing a positive and rich reputation. Over the past 95 odd years many students have graduated to become leaders within the Mackay District and broader community. In the modern booming Mackay economy Mackay SHS is continuing to educate all students in the district and enhancing the school's tradition of academic, cultural and sporting excellence.
