St. Stephen's College (Chinese: 聖士提反書院) is a Christian Direct Subsidy Scheme co-educational secondary school in Stanley, Hong Kong. With an area of about 150,000 m2 (15 hectares), the college is the largest secondary school in Hong Kong, and is one of the very few boarding schools in the territory. St Stephen's College uses English as the medium of instruction except for Chinese-based subjects.

Many buildings in the campus are listed in the list of historic Buildings and Declared Monuments by the Antiquities Advisory Board. It is the first school in the territory having its own Heritage Trail in the school campus. The college's oldest building, the School House, was declared a monument in 2011, being one of the few schools in Hong Kong to own a Declared Monument in its campus.
