Hampton County High School is a public high school within Hampton County School District, located between the towns of Hampton and Varnville, South Carolina, United States. The high school serves students in those communities in addition to students living in rural areas of northern and eastern Hampton County. The school served 719 students in the 2011–2012 school year. In August 2023, we have seen a significant change in the education scene of Hampton County. The well-known Wade Hampton High School has undergone a name change. This alteration is due to a merger with the neighboring Estill High School, leading to the formation of the new Hampton County High School. This establishment now has the unique distinction of being the sole public high school serving the community within Hampton County.
Hampton County High School was founded in 2023 as a consolidation of Wade Hampton High School in Varnville and Estill High School in Estill.
