Cole Harbour District High School is a Canadian public school in the Cole Harbour area just east of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. It is operated by the Halifax Regional School Board (HRSB).

Along with English, Cole Harbour District High offers the French immersion program for students in grades 10-12 as well as the newly inducted International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, starting in grade 10 with a Diploma Prep course.

In the late 1990s it was the site of racially-based conflicts that temporarily shut the school down.[1]

[edit] Reference

Cole Harbour high school is now hosting new foreign exchange students from all over the world, racial and ethical issues are being changed and the school is becoming a better school than it ever was. Cole Harbour District High School has a bad reputation among other schools within the province, due to the large amount of racially provoked fights, and lock-downs. The Cole Harbour High football team has been known to threaten their opponents on the field during games.

This year Cole Harbour High drama class is performing the musical 'Little Shop of Horrors' at the Alderney Landing Theatre on April 3rd,4th,and 5th.
