For many people choosing a home comes second to choosing a school. Luckily, West Vancouver has a lot of great schools, both public and independent. When you have found the right school, then we will help you find the right house.
West Vancouver's public schools are managed by School District 45. Within this district there are 29 elementary and 7 secondary schools, covering education from Kindergarten to Grade 12, when children graduate from high school and move onto post-secondary education.
The school district's web site has information on all the schools in the district. Most individual schools also have their own web sites. If you are interested in a particular school, then it is a good idea to contact them to arrange a visit.
If you are interested in independent schools then the Federation of Independent School Associations has a directory of schools. You will need to contact schools directly. In West Vancouver there are a number of independent schools:

When moving house, especially when moving into West Vancouver for the first time, your choice of home might well be strongly influenced by your preferred school.
