Steveston-London Secondary School

Before the establishment of Steveston-London Secondary School, Steveston Secondary School and Charles E. London Secondary School were two high schools close together. However, both schools were merged into one because of declining enrollment. The name "Steveston-London Secondary School" was chosen on June 14, 2006 as decided in a student vote from both schools.

Steveston-London Secondary School occupies the same building as Charles E. London Secondary School had, with a new 19 million dollars renovation from the Government of British Columbia. The new addition consists of a second floor science wing as well as 9 classrooms and 2 laboratories. Other additions include a library, theater, music room, and an additional gymnasium and counseling area. Many classrooms, such as Charles E. London's former gymnasium, have been renovated. The former Steveston Secondary School building was demolished over the course of mid-2015 to Summer 2016 and replaced with a new residential development.
