Templeton Secondary School, Secondary school building in Grandview-Woodland, East Vancouver, Canada

Templeton Secondary School is a three-story reinforced concrete school building in the Grandview-Woodland neighborhood of Vancouver, with a roughcast stucco exterior painted in purple and grey and large banks of windows. The grounds surrounding the building include open sports fields and are bordered by mature trees.

Templeton Junior High opened in fall 1927, with H. B. Fitch as first principal; the school is named after William Templeton, a former mayor of Vancouver. Grade 10 was added in 1956 and Grade 11 in 1963. In 1964 the first Grade 12 students entered and it became Templeton Secondary School. A science and home economics wing and a new gymnasium followed in the early 1960s, and a new library was built by 1970.

The school sits in one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Vancouver, and this shows in the daily life on campus, where students from many different backgrounds cross paths. Murals and student artwork displayed around the building reflect the range of voices that make up the school community.

The building is in a residential area with good public transit access and is easy to reach on foot from nearby stops. Since this is an active school, access to the grounds is generally limited to school hours and authorized visitors.

Templeton's hallway, known to students as the "Smallville Hallway", still carries the murals painted for Smallville High and Beachwood High; it is where most television and film shoots take place. Bryan Adams sang there in the auditorium at a 1978 lunch-hour concert as lead singer of Sweeney Todd.
