South Delta Secondary is a public high school in Tsawwassen, British Columbia part of School District 37 Delta. SDSS is well known for its football program, unique hockey academy, and ambitious theatre program.

In the past, Tsawwassen also had a separate public Junior high school, Tsawwassen Junior Secondary School. This school was merged with South Delta Senior Secondary in the late 1990s to make South Delta Secondary. For the next few years, students from grades 8 through 12 attended classes in both the Senior (North) and Junior (South) buildings. In 2003, the land was sold and the building which formerly housed the Junior High school was demolished to make room for a new housing development. At this time, the North building was expanded to hold all the students.
