Anna High School is a public high school in Anna, Ohio. It is the only high school in the Anna Local Schools district, which is predominantly rural. Agriculture is a major occupation among district residents, with many others working in factory production, retail businesses, and at the Honda Anna Engine Plant. Approximately 60% of the school district's tax revenues are received from Honda, so it is the primary tax contributor in the school district and is crucial to the district's financial stability.

Anna students regularly score above state and national standards on standardized tests and approximately 3/4 of the students pass all parts of the Ohio 9th Grade Proficiency Tests on their first attempt. ACT scores are regularly above the national average.

Anna Schools are expanding in the use of technology in its schools with students regularly using many different technologies for school work. The new elementary school was designed with such technology in mind and has the wiring capability built-in to expand on that technology as new developments occur. Both district buildings are networked, have fiber-optic cables connecting the two buildings, sometimes have access to the internet, and have access to distance learning. Teachers have access to laptop computers and a plan is underway to expand the use of laptops to students.

A wide range of extracurricular activities is available to students. Whether a student's interests are athletics, dramatics, music, or clubs; there are many excellent extracurricular choices for them.

The Anna Rockets are primarily members of the Shelby County Athletic League, but are football members of the Midwest Athletic Conference.
