H. J. Cambie Secondary is a public high school in Richmond, British Columbia part of School District 38 Richmond. Cambie was the first secondary school in Richmond. When it first started in 1928, it was known as Richmond High. Later on it changed its name to Henry James Cambie Secondary School. In 1995 Cambie moved to its current location.
The school is named for Henry John Cambie, chief engineer of the Canadian Pacific Railway, who was instrumental in having nearby Vancouver designated as the transcontinental railroad's terminus.
