Morganza High School
Former Morganza High School building

Morganza High School was a high school located at 752 South Louisiana Highway 3050 in the village of Morganza, Louisiana. The school was established in 1906 as a three-room school building[1]. It was closed as a high school in the early 1980s. The school's mascot was the Tigers. The former high school building later became home to Morganza Elementary which was administered by the Pointe Coupee Parish School Board.

The school buildings and grounds are currently being used as a law enforcement training facility for the Pointe Coupee Parish Sheriff's Office.

John B. Fournet, later a supporter of Huey Pierce Long, Jr., Speaker of the Louisiana House of Representatives, lieutenant governor, and associate and Chief Justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court, was the principal of Morganza High School in the 1916-1917 academic year.
