The South Shore Regional School Board (SSRSB) was formed in August 2004, when the Province of Nova Scotia dissolved the Southwest Regional School Board and created two regional Boards - SSRSB and Tri-County Regional School Board. SSRSB is responsible for providing education to approximately 6269 students of Lunenburg and Queens counties, an area of 5250 square kilometres, with 27 schools.
