The St. Clair Catholic District School Board (SCCDSB, known as English-language Separate District School Board No. 39 prior to 1999[1]) is the separate school board that manages Catholic education in the county of Lambton including the city of Sarnia as well as in the regional municipality of Chatham-Kent, in southern Ontario, Canada.

The Board manages 26 elementary schools and 2 secondary or high schools.[2] The secondary schools are:

The Board was formed by an amalgamation of the Lambton County Roman Catholic Separate School Board and Kent County Roman Catholic Separate School Board, which took place in 1999.

St. Clair CDSB has announced plans to merge the two Sarnia high schools, tentatively planned for September, 2012. The Board has recommended naming what will be the lone Sarnia Catholic high school St. Patrick's, as the name has 75 years of history in the city. Beginning in September 2010, the Board has also recommended that St. Christopher Secondary carry the name St. Patrick's North Campus, while the old East Street St. Patrick's will be known as the South Campus, to transition the north end school prior to the actual merger.[3] Renaming of schools has been postponed because of overwhelming opposition from current students and parents of St. Christopher school.
