Chartiers Valley High School
Chartiers Valley High School is a public school that was established in 1959 and is physically located in Collier Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States. However, the school's post office address is Bridgeville, PA. The school district serves Collier Township, Bridgeville Borough, Scott Township and Heidelberg Borough.

A new high school and middle school complex is being constructed at the site. The new complex will retain its gymnasium, pool and auditorium. The school has an olympic-size indoor swimming pool which is open to the public three evenings a week. A small fee is charged to district residents and non-residents. The school's on-site stadium was home to the professional soccer team Pittsburgh Riverhounds (2008–2012).

The school district is named for Chartiers Creek, which flows through and/or forms part of the border for all four regions (Bridgeville, Collier, Heidelberg, and Scott) the district serves. The creek itself is named after Pierre Chartier.
