Is “highschool” one or two words? (American-English)?

High school is written in two words, both in American and British English. Also note: elementary school, secondary school, middle school…

Source(s): Studied English and I have also worked in both elementary and secondary/high schools.

It is two words when you mean the place: I go to high school, Jefferson High School, Where is the high school? etc

You will see both high school and high-school when the word is used to describe something else: a high-school student or a high school student, a high-school musical or a high school musical. The trend is not to use the hyphen unless the expression is unclear without it.
