Gordon Lee High School is a public high school located in Chickamauga, Georgia, USA. The school is part of the Chickamauga City School District which serves Walker County, Georgia.[3] Gordon Lee High School was founded by a grant left by the late Gordon Lee of Chickamauga. This grant included a plot of land along with enough money to get the school started.

The first graduation consisted of one student, Leon Wiley, in 1917. The Main Building, Olive Lee Building, and Tom Lee Building were constructed in 1930. New additions have been added over time which consists of the Ware-Jewell Activities Center. It holds a gymnasium, classrooms, and a technology lab. The center also harbours the Arthur Yates Building that contains math and science classrooms. Since 1991, Gordon Lee High School and Gordon Lee Middle school started to share a brand new band room and cafeteria; with the construction of the middle school.
