Hilliard Darby High School is the second high school in the Hilliard City School District in Hilliard, Ohio. It is one of three high schools in the district along with Hilliard Davidson High School and Hilliard Bradley High School. The school is located at 4200 Leppert Road, just north of Hilliard Heritage Middle School. The mascot is the Panther and the school's colors are Columbia blue, black, and white.

The current principal is Ryan McClure. He is the Darby's third principal following Jeffrey R. Reinhard and David J. Stewart, the latter of the two moving to Hilliard Bradley High School upon its opening.^[2] Darby also has a freshman vice principal, Dawn Sayre, and two 10-12 grade vice principals, Mike McDonough and Phil Smith.

Darby opened in the 1997-1998 school year, and despite a reputed capacity of 1,800, it held over 2,200 students during the 2008-2009 school year.^[3] The enrollment is once again below capacity due to the opening of Bradley, the district's third high school, in fall 2009.
