King George Secondary School is a public secondary school located in the West End of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
The school is located in the West End, with two elementary schools feeding in. Some students are from other areas of Vancouver who wish to be in a smaller school environment.
Since July 2006, King George Secondary has been approved by International Baccalaureate (IB) to offer the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme for students in grades 8, 9, and 10,[2] as one of the only 3 schools in the city to offer the MYP Programme.
The school is adjacent to the West End Community Centre, enabling youth to get more involved in their programs.
