Bribie Island State High School is a public, co-educational, high school, located in the suburb of Bongaree on Bribie Island, Queensland, Australia.[2][3] It is administered by the Department of Education, with an enrolment of 1,176 students and a teaching staff of 98, as of 2023.[3] The school serves students from Year 7 to Year 12.[2][3]

History

The school opened on 23 January 1989,[4] serving as the prototype of the new HS88 Design Series,[5] a design used by the Department of Education for constructing new high school buildings.[citation needed] The official opening ceremony occurred on 21 July 1989.[6]

In 2019, a teacher at the school pleaded guilty to six child exploitation charges, 'five counts of distributing and one count of possessing child exploitation material,' which effectively ended his career as a teacher.[7][8][9]
