Marine Drive Academy (MDA) is a P-12 school in Sheet Harbour, Nova Scotia, Canada.
The school is located in the Halifax Regional Municipality and is a part of the Halifax Regional Centre for Education. It is located adjacent to its predecessor, Duncan MacMillan High School, and on the site of the former Sheet Harbour Consolidated School. Construction began in late 2017 and the building opened in September 2020. Avondale Construction was enlisted as the contractor, while Century Exteriors and FBM Architecture handled the exterior and interior design respectively.[2][3] The structure of the building was influenced heavily by the surrounding landscape, and is designed to also act as a community hub.[3] As of 2020, 256 students were enrolled in the school.[1]
