West Niagara Secondary School is a secondary school in Beamsville, Ontario, Canada, and operated by the District School Board of Niagara (DSBN). It replaced the former Grimsby Secondary School and Beamsville District Secondary School in 2022. West Niagara is currently the newest secondary school in the Niagara Region.

Construction delays

The construction of the school oversaw many delays, and was originally planned to open in September 2020. One of the more notable delays was the extensive soil cleanup required due to contaminants found on the site.[1] The COVID-19 pandemic caused sufficient delay that the school would not open for the 2022–2023 school year.[2] Construction finished in time for the 2023-2024 school year, in which students stepped foot in the school for the first time. [3] After moving to the new site, the Grimsby Secondary School and Beamsville District Secondary School buildings were both closed, though they are still owned by the DSBN.
