Harbour View High School is a high school located in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. There are many students attending grades 9-12 there.[1] The school has 63 staff members. The school's Principal is Michael Butler and the two Vice Principals are Rena MacGregor (11-12) and Mrs. Catherine Curwin (9-10), HVHS was formed in 1997 with 900 students, when the former Saint John Vocational School (200 students) was transformed into HVHS to accommodate School District 8's new geographic zoning policy for its 5 high schools.
In 2001, the school population was over 1300. Harbour View High, despite its location in Saint John's North End, was meant to serve the high school students for Saint John, New Brunswick's Westside, the Grand Bay–Westfield area, and Fundy Shores Dipper Harbour. The school, although no longer formally a vocational school, still carries many trade-related options. A full range of academic courses exists alongside many vocational-type courses from Metals Processing, Business, and Child Studies. Harbour View also has a selection of Fine Arts courses which, alongside visual arts and music, includes Fine Arts 110, History of Rock and Roll, and Graphic Art & Design.
