Spring Grove Area High School, or simply Spring Grove, is a high school in York County, Pennsylvania.

History

Spring Grove did not compete in pyramidal quiz bowl until 2017. It competed only in the Pennsylvania State Academic Competition, winning the qualifier match for Lincoln Intermediate Unit 12 five years in a row from 2013-17.

After winning an upset in a three-way match over Great Valley and Lehigh Valley Academy at the 2017 PSAC, Spring Grove won its first ever State Championship, marking the first title for any school in Lincoln Intermediate Unit 12. They went on to make their pyramidal debut at 2017 HSNCT, finishing 5-5 and missing the playoffs.

The team also competes on the program Brainbusters, and came in second place in the 2015-16 iteration of the show.

Spring Grove was one of the founding members of the York-Adams Quiz Bowl League, where it competes today.
