There are certainly many eye-catching high schools across the United States, each with their unique architectural styles. Here are a few that often get recognized for their impressive structures and scenic locations:

1. Stuyvesant High School in New York City: It's a modern structure located near the Hudson River with fabulous views of the city and river.

2. Bronx High School of Science in New York: This historic school in the Bronx offers an impressive façade with its old, castle-like structure.

3. Beverly Hills High School in California: Spanish-inspired architecture and a distinctive facade make it a familiar sight, especially since it's been featured in a number of films and TV shows.

4. Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Virginia: This high-tech campus is home to one of the leading STEM-focused high schools in the country and its cutting-edge design represents the innovative mindset of its students.

5. Punahou School in Honolulu, Hawaii: It boasts a tropical campus with lush vegetation and stunning views. The school's Wo International Center, with its curvature and glass exterior, stands out particularly.

6. Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts: This private boarding school, established in 1778, has a traditional New England campus, complete with beautiful old buildings and sprawling green spaces.

7. The Stevenson School in Pebble Beach, California: This quaint campus is known for its Spanish-inspired architecture and its stunning location within a Monterey Pine forest, and just a stone's throw from the Pacific Ocean.

Keep in mind that the beauty of a school's campus can also depend on personal preference. Some may prefer classic, Ivy-covered buildings while others may be drawn to edgy, modern designs.
