About Our School
Welcome to George S. Parker High School, proudly serving the west side of Janesville, Wisconsin, as part of the School District of Janesville. Named in honor of civic leader and Parker Pen Company founder George S. Parker, our school has built a strong tradition of inclusive community, academic growth, and vibrant school spirit since opening in 1968.

Whether our Vikings are preparing for four-year universities, technical colleges, military service, or entering the workforce, we provide a welcoming environment where every student has the support to succeed.
