Bowen Island Community School is a public elementary school on Bowen Island, British Columbia part of School District 45 West Vancouver.

In 2007 the school won the award for "Best environmental education" in the province, in part for the school based vegetable garden. The premier of BC, Gordon Campbell presented the award to the school principal.

Being set in a rural island setting, the school functions as an elementary school for grades K-7 as well as a community recreation centre. Programs and events for all ages are run from this facility which is the heart of the island community.

The grounds include 2 playgrounds, a tennis court, basketball court, a large playing field as well as forested area. Amy Rice is the volleyball coach in the school and she had previously worked at Ridgeview Elementary School in West Vancouver as a grade 6 teacher.
