History
Northwest facing view of Delview Secondary

The school was established in 1969 and shared premises at North Delta Secondary School. In February 1970, the school moved to its permanent site at 116th Street.

Seismic upgrading of the school was approved in April 2006 and was completed by fall 2007.[1]

Classes for students in grades 11 and 12 were added in 2006-07 and the school now supports a full 8-12 curriculum, no longer requiring students to switch over to North Delta Secondary School after 10th grade.[2]

Sport

The Vancouver Whitecaps soccer team has established the Whitecaps Delta School Academy, for Grades 8-10 boys at Delview. The academy opened in September 2008.[3][4]
