Delview Secondary is a public high school in Delta, British Columbia, Canada.
[1] The school was established in 1969, with the first Principal Ernie Marshall combining the names "Delta" and "Riverview" to make Delview.
Students have produced many memorable projects from this course, such as publishing books, doing interviews, and having heated debates.
Students have created podcasts covering eating disorders, air pollution, racism, ocean waste and homelessness, as well as written published books such as The March of Humanity,[4] The World (Almost) Sucks,[5] and More Than the Sum of Our Parts: A Student Understanding of Mental Health.
For the 2023–24 winter season (Nov–Mar), Delview offers grade 8, junior, and senior boys and girls basketball teams as well as a co-ed wrestling program.
Currently run by Kent Laubman and Nadia Schalk, the Leadership program is active in helping new students coming to the school, running events to raise school spirit and have fun opportunities for Delview students to take part in, and arranging important events for Delview such as assemblies, fundraisers, etc.
Yearbook is an X-Block course offered to students to give them a chance to learn visual and graphic design through photography, photoshop, and writing, coming together to form the yearbook, a book composed and sold to Delview students consisting of photos from the year.
T4G sees hundreds of students and parents, plus the school's entire staff, come together to collect tens of thousands of non-perishable food items, recyclables and cash donations from across North Delta, all to benefit the Surrey Food Bank and Deltassist.
On the night of T4G, teams of students fan out across the community, collecting donations door-to-door and bring them back to the school where they will be counted, sorted and boxed for pick up the following morning.
[9] Started by teachers Ron McNeill, Barb Woodford and Sandy Ferguson in 1992 under the name "Ten-in-One" (10,000 items collected in one night), it has grown into a widespread volunteer event that influences people from across North Delta to contribute and help out local food banks.
[11] For the 31st year of Thanks 4 Giving on October 11, 2023, Delview's T4G committee set a goal for 10,000, and well exceeded that goal- beating their highest total record ever- raising 26,552 cans after the final count.
Tim Bonikowsky runs this event once a month and lets all Delview students sign up to perform and come watch, ranging from organ solos to rock music.
