School District 46 Sunshine Coast is a school district in British Columbia, Canada. It covers an area in the Sunshine Coast region northwest of Greater Vancouver, including the communities of Gibsons, and Sechelt.

The School District has a significant number of students with First Nations, Métis, and Inuit ancestry. It operates within the traditional territories of the shíshálh (Sechelt) Nation and the Skwxwu7mesh uxwumixw (Squamish Nation) and works with these First Nations to provide Aboriginal Programs and Services, including the sháshishálhem (shíshálh) Language and Culture Program. In partnership with the Sechelt Indian Band Education Department, these are offered at both elementary and secondary schools.[2][3]
