Nackawic Senior High School is a high school located in Nackawic, New Brunswick, Canada. Nackawic High receives new students primarily from Nackawic Middle School and Keswick Valley Memorial School, if they do not choose to attend Leo Hayes High School in Fredericton.

The school houses the Nackawic Public-School Library, accessible by the public.[4]

History

The school was finished in October 1967, to replace Southampton Regional High School, the site of which was flooded by the construction of the Mactaquac Dam. Some classes were housed in temporary portable classrooms until 1971, when the Nackawic Junior High School was finished.[5]

Originally, the school housed grades 7-12. Later, grades 7-9 were moved to the Junior High. In the 1990s, an addition was built on to accommodate grade 9, which was transferred back from Nackawic Middle School.

The French education program, originally a separate school (École Heritage de Nackawic), was established in October 1984 and housed in a group of portable classrooms[5] to the side of the main building. The program was later shifted to the main building. The portables were later retired because of vandalism.

Sports

The Nackawic High School Boy's Soccer Team won its first provincial championship in the fall of 2014. They defeated Stanley High School 2-1 on penalty kicks. Winning the provincial championship capped off a perfect season- regular season champions and regional champs. They had an impecable record despite only losing one game- 1-0 to Carleton North in exhibition play.
