[edit] History
On March 22, 1973, in response to overcrowding at H.D. Stafford Junior Secondary, a $1.5 million contract began the construction of a Brookswood Junior Secondary School (Grades 8-10); its students would move to Langley Secondary to graduate. The school was later enlarged to become a full (8-12) secondary school, and further renovations (including a second gym) were complete between 1995 and 1996.
