West Niagara Secondary School
West Niagara Secondary School is a secondary school in Beamsville, Ontario, Canada, and operated by the District School Board of Niagara (DSBN). It replaced the former Grimsby Secondary School and Beamsville District Secondary School in 2022. West Niagara is currently the newest secondary school in the Niagara Region. Construction delays The construction of the school oversaw many delays, and was originally planned to open in September 2020. One of the more notable delays was the extensive soil cleanup required due to contaminants found on the site. The COVID-19 pandemic caused sufficient delay that the school would not open for the 2022–2023 school year. Construction finished in time for the 2023-2024 school year, in which students stepped foot in the school for the first time. The Grimsby location was closed following the previous school year.

Grimsby, Ontario
Grimsby is a town on Lake Ontario in the Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada. Grimsby is at the eastern end of the Hamilton Census Metropolitan Area. It is named after the English fishing town of Grimsby in north-east Lincolnshire. The majority of residents reside in the area bounded by Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment, home to a section of the Bruce Trail. Grimsby has experienced significant growth over the past two decades due to its position between Hamilton and St. Catharines. Growth is limited by the natural boundaries of Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment. Some residents feel development is detrimental to the town as orchards close to the town centre are used for residential development; however, most of the orchards in Grimsby were replaced by houses between the 1950s and 1980s and very few orchards remain. According to a late 2019 report, the town has 33 small parks, 17 larger and "many more green spaces, sport fields, parkettes, trails, and facilities". Some not ...
