Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School is a suburban public high school (grades 9-12) in Yarmouth, Massachusetts. It opened in 1957 and was expanded and renovated in 1979 and again in 2006. It serves the Barnstable County towns of Yarmouth and Dennis and is the third largest high school (in terms of student population) on Cape Cod with approximately 1,200 students.

Sports
Dennis-Yarmouth is affiliated with the MIAA and participates in many varsity sports. The school is part of the Atlantic Coast League. Their mascot is the dolphin, named Phinneus and their colors are green and white.
In recent years the Dolphins have enjoyed success on many playing fields. The baseball team has won the ACL South Championship in 4 of the last 6 years, the football team won the league championship for the first time in 47 years, and the girls track and cross country teams have continued their dominance. D-Y has been a part of Division 2 in Massachusetts, but will be stepping down to Division 3 next year.
The football team has created a rivalry with Nauset Regional High School's football team. The two teams play on Thanksgiving day each year in the Chowder Bowl. The winner keeps the Chowder Bowl trophy for the entire school year. Recently the rivalry has extended to the faculty with the creation of the annual Chowder Cup game. The Chowder Cup is a flag football game played between the teachers of Dennis-Yarmouth and the teachers of Nauset.
Dennis-Yarmouth has a continually victorious track program. In 2006, the girls cross country team won the State Meet at Northfield Mountain, Northfield MA. They have only lost one cross country meet in eight years, and have lost no dual track meets in that time.
Extracurricular Activities
Every March the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School Student Council plans and hosts the annual Cape and Islands Leadership Conference (CILC). The conference invites student councils from high schools across Cape Cod and South Eastern Massachusetts to listen to motivational speakers and engage in leadership workshops and large group team work activities. One-hundred fourteen students from seven high schools attended the 2009 Cape and Islands Leadership Conference which took place on March 27.
