The school was opened in 1960, originally as a junior secondary school, and became a full range secondary school in 1996. It was named after Richmond's first reeve/head councilman (or mayor, in modern terms) and is best known for its extensive football program, which is unique in Richmond and its strong relationships between staff and students. The school is located at the corner of No. 1 Road and Francis Road in Richmond, adjacent to the West Richmond Community Centre. The current principal is Mrs. J. McFadyen.

There are many activities within the school to strengthen relationships and community. Boyd's Parent Advisory Committee is vibrant and welcomes new members.
