Spencer High School in Spencer, West Virginia existed from 1911-1993, when the school merged with the only other high school in Roane County, Walton High School, into a new facility known as Roane County High School.

The Spencer High School Alumni Association was formed in 1998 with three goals:

• Preserving the history of Spencer High School
• Communicate with alumni
