The school opened with eight classrooms and a gymnasium, and a few years later, two portables were added to provide extra classroom and library facilities. Four more rooms were eventually added to the eastern end of the school to house home economics and shop classes.In 1951 construction started on a new North Campus building on Mathers Avenue and by 1952 it opened as West Vancouver Secondary School. A few years later, 1955, the building was expanded with a three-floor west wing, and in 1960 a second gymnasium was installed. The building further went through an expansion adding a 500-seat theatre with two music rooms in the east wing. In addition, with provincial funds, a six-room shop wing known as the Tech Wing was added behind the north campus building, and a new South Campus building was added next to the Inglewood building to accommodate more students.
