Carihi Secondary is a public high school in Campbell River, British Columbia part of School District 72 and School District 93 Conseil scolaire francophone.
Carihi School opened in 1965 to accommodate the overpopulated River Campbell Elementary School (now known as Ecole Phoenix Middle School). In the 1980s, the school was called "Campbell River High". The students began calling it Carihi and eventually the name was changed.
On November 21, 2024, a fire broke out at the school, causing the facility to be shut down for over a week. The cause of the fire was determined to be spontaneous combustion. [2] [3] In March of 2025, plans to demolish the areas of the school affected by the fire were announced by School District 72. [4]
