Carihi Secondary is a public high school in Campbell River, British Columbia part of SD 72 Vancouver Island and School District 93 Conseil scolaire francophone.

Carihi School opened in 1965 to accommodate the overpopulated Campbell River Middle/High School (now known as Ecole Phoenix Middle School). In the 80's the school was called "Campbell River High". The students began calling it Carihi and eventually the name was changed.

The students at Carihi are very active with the environment. The students have formed an environmental group concentrated on the community. Their environmental group in 2009 started the composting program that concentrated on the staff's refuse, and they have plans to expand throughout the school.
