As announced in 2018, a new school is planned to support the ongoing growth in the Clayton Park - Fairview area. The school is in the initial planning stages, and site location work is currently underway. 

Last year, we let Halifax West High families know that a modular unit would be built this past spring. The 12-classroom addition placed at HWH is helping support growth in surrounding schools.
