Tupi National High School is a public national high school established in 1966.
The High school changed its name from Tupi Barangay High School when it was converted to a national high school in 1985 through Parliamentary Bill No. 5750.
In 2009, its annex in Barangay Cebuano was separated into an independent national high school called Cebuano National High school through Republic Act 9767.
Over the years, Tupi National High School has established itself as one of the leading public secondary schools in the Municipality of Tupi and the Province of South Cotabato through its academic programs and student achievements in various division, regional, and national competitions.
The school offers several special curricular programs, including the Science, Technology, and Engineering (STE) Program, the Special Program in the Arts (SPA), the Special Program in Sports (SPS), and the Special Program in Foreign Language (SPFL). Students from these programs have represented the Schools Division of South Cotabato in fields such as journalism, robotics, science and technology, accounting, foreign languages, performing arts, and sports.
The school's campus journalists regularly participate in the Division Schools Press Conference (DSPC), Regional Schools Press Conference (RSPC), and National Schools Press Conference (NSPC), representing the municipality and the Schools Division of South Cotabato in various individual and group categories.
Students under the Science, Technology, and Engineering Program have likewise represented the school in robotics and innovation competitions at the division and regional levels.
The Special Program in the Arts has also gained recognition in cultural and documentary competitions. In 2022, Tupi National High School won first place in the Sinedokyu Mobile Documentary Contest organized by the Arts, Culture, Tourism and Museum Unit of South Cotabato among participating Special Program in the Arts schools in the province.
Despite being one of the newer programs offered by the school, the Special Program in Foreign Language has earned national recognition through the Department of Education's National Festival of Talents. During the 2024 National Festival of Talents held in Naga City, Cebu, student Kenjie Panganiban placed third in the Lingo Stars: Foreign Language Exposition (Spanish) category. In the following year, Prince Ace Gumpal represented Region XII in the same category during the 2025 National Festival of Talents held in Vigan City, Ilocos Sur, earning national recognition for the school's Spanish program.
