Sardis Secondary School

What Sardis Secondary School does

Sardis Secondary School is a public secondary school serving Grades 9-12 in Chilliwack, British Columbia, operating under Chilliwack School District No. 33 (SD33), a government state entity. Founded in 1956 as Sardis Junior High School, it has served the local community for nearly 70 years and currently serves students in a building opened in 1995, with Grade 9 students reintegrated into the school in 2018 and a new two-storey addition scheduled to open in September 2026 to add 400 additional student spaces. The school offers a comprehensive academic program alongside specialized offerings including an Agriculture Program with a working farm, greenhouse, and CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) initiative; a Hockey Academy; Athletics; a Music Department; a FOCUS academic program; Career Education through ADST and Youth TRAIN/Work in Trades; and an International Student Program coordinated through SD33.

The school's core technology stack is provided at the district level through SD33 and consists of standard K-12 administrative and learning platforms: Microsoft Office 365 for productivity, Moodle as the LMS, MyEducationBC for student information and grades, myBlueprint for career and education planning, MyFlex, and Powerschool. These are off-the-shelf, BC Ministry-supported platforms rather than proprietary technology assets. The school distributes primarily through SD33's E-Registration portal, with students assigned based on district catchment area.

Sardis Secondary is funded through British Columbia provincial government education allocations under the public school system, with supplementary student fees for specific programs and materials, and tuition revenue from the International Student Program. It is not a commercial entity, has no disclosed revenue, and is not privately owned or venture-backed. Operations are governed by the elected SD33 school board and district administration.
