White Plains High School is a high school located in White Plains, New York. The town is the county seat of Westchester County, and appropriately the school was formerly the center of the QU-dominated quizbowl scene there. The former coach of the White Plains team, Les Roby, was one of the strongest Chip Beall supporters and quite possibly the longest-serving quizbowl coach in the US. The team had its best success in 1990, when its team placed second in the NAC. It hosted WACKO and the Omar Q Beckins Academic Challenge, which attracted extremely large numbers of teams in their history.
Les retired in 2020; White Plains has not hosted anything since then, and QU has disappeared from Westchester.
