Alberni District Secondary School

Story

Alberni District Secondary School, formerly known as Alberni District High School, is the only secondary school in Port Alberni. It is a part of School District 70 Alberni.HistoryADSS was originally located in 1951 on the site of the former Redford School, but needed to move to the site on Burde Street within a year to accommodate all the new students attending. Although at this time there were 800 students and 32 teachers, approximately half of the students were in grade 7 or 8, with only about 30 students in the graduating class. In 1977, enrollment was around 1300 in grades 11 and 12, with over 400 students in grade 12 alone. Many additions were built onto this second school, including a cafeteria, full vocational training shops, a library and an auditorium. The auditorium seated nearly 1000 and featured a large stage that was the venue for decades of performances, ceremonies and school functions. The 22 acre site boasted multiple sports fields, a running track and tennis courts, and the Gym was home to decades of sporting events, including Totem Tournaments (basketball). In January 1974, the roof was blown off the building and extensive damage was caused to the interior.The largest graduating class from ADSS was 1988, at over 460 students.School District 70 began construction on a new location for ADSS on Roger Street, near the intersection with 10th Avenue, in 2010 to replace the former school building at 4000 Burde Street, which closed at the end of June 2012. The new school building, located at 4000 Roger Street, opened on September 10, 2012.

I was trespassed by the principal when I was dealing with family neglect over a non existent restraining order a girl I dated for a few months lied to him about.nnI was stopped from killing myself twice that year.nnThe principal here is a literal criminal with how neglectful his practices are, do not trust them to handle your kids properly.nnHe would force Shaun Shahi along with passive aggressive behavior over these matters too as he tried to help me.nnIf my grandfathers death wasn't taken out on me so greatly as my dad decided to not continue supporting the family I can only imagine the legal issues this would've resulted in.nnshame on this place
I was taking a self paced math class and I kept asking for my math work. The teacher kept saying he would get me it and never did. On top of it all, it was my last year for school. I was doing good until they said I couldn't finish because I had no math completed. I was actually doing good my final year to try work on my education and this one teacher failed me
I went to this school for all of grand 9 and beginning of grade 10 year and I lovednthis school! But shortly during grade 10 year I had to move and I missed this amazing school on the same day!nnEspecially principals, teachers, and EA like Mr. Rob Souther he's one of my amazing principal that I had there for a short period of time than there's Ms. Dianna Dalton was my fave teacher that I had there and also my EA Leah Ursic my amazing educational assistance she was phenomenal! And I can't forget about Ms. Deb Woods or Woodie like kids like to call her and she was my most absolutely favorite Textiles and Designs teacher there is and she taught me everything that there is about fashion and fabric and taught me how to use a Janome sewing machine and I will forever grateful to have met her and have her and the rest of the teacher and principal in my life and I know I was only at Alberni District Secondary School for a short amout of time but it felt like I graduated there and I can't thank this school enough! nnAnd for anyone Kids that lives around Port Alberni even living in Banfield go to this high school parent you won't regret it not one bit!
It's a beautiful high school and I was fortunate enough to attend the indigenous welcoming dinner tonight, in conjunction with Truth and reconciliation day tomorrow. I was very honored to be invited.
We were here for a soccer game in the Astro-turf. Great field. The kids practice here at night as well, and their lights are awesome. My daughter loves their field.
