Seaquam Secondary is a public high school serving the Sunshine Hills and Sunshine Woods neighbourhoods in Delta, British Columbia. Seaquam has remained in the top 100 high schools in British Columbia since its opening in 1977, many years ranking in the top 10 and top 20. The school name was decided by a contest in which students and members of the community participated. The Board of School Trustees chose "Seaquam" in the end, which means 'the sun' or 'sunshine' in the Musqueam language. The school opened on September 6, 1977 with 37 staff members and 633 students in grades 7 to 11. The number of staff was increased to 41 when one hundred more students enrolled than expected. Since then, grade 12 was added and grade 7 was dropped to meet the present 8-12 standard for high schools. A few of the original teaching staff still remain teaching in Seaquam. ==Programs== Since 2011 Seaquam has been an IB (International Baccalaureate) World School.〔(IBO World School - Seaquam webpage ), retrieved 2012-04-04〕 On five occasions, the Seaquam Performing Arts Program has placed in the top six at the BC Festival of the Arts.
