Sekolah Menengah Sains Kuala Selangor (English: Kuala Selangor Science Secondary School; abbreviated KUSESS) is a Fully Residential School, also known as Sekolah Berasrama Penuh (SBP) in Malaysia. KUSESS was then built under the Sixth Malaysia Plan. It is located near Bandar Melawati, Kuala Selangor which is about 70 kilometres from the nation's capital, Kuala Lumpur. The construction works on the school began on 24 April 1994 and finally completed in 1996.

The school started operating on 8 September 1996; with a first intake of 210 students,19 teaching staff and 4 support staff. The following year saw a sharp increase in the number of students that were admitted to the school. 187 students gained entry to Form 1 while 165 students were admitted into Form 4. The teaching staff almost tripled from 19 to 53. On 27 May 1997 the school was officiated then by the Deputy Prime Minister; Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

By 1998, the number of students had grown to 810 and the teaching staff had a strength of 63 people. The year also saw the retirement of the school's first principal Tuan Haji Khamis bin Maarof. He was replaced by Tuan Haji Ariffin bin Abdul Rahaman, who left his post at Sekolah Menengah Kadok, Kota Bahru, Kelantan to take the seat as the principal. It was also the year which saw the students of the school sit for Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR) and Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examinations for the first time. The results were an overwhelming success as for PMR as the school was ranked as one of the top 5 Sekolah Berasrama Penuh (SBP); while with the total of 147 students out of 148 students obtained first rank in Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM).

Today the school has 783 students in 25 classes, taught by 75 teachers.

The school has a lot of dress codes for each student to solidified their standing as a outstanding student based on the day of the week and time. On Mondays, students would wear a white shirt with long sleeves for boys; Baju Kurung with black skirt for girls. While on Wednesdays, they would usually wear the uniform of their respective uniform units. On Thursdays, they will wear their sport attire based on their houses whether it is Waja, Perdana, Wira and Satria; while they will wear an exclusive design of traditional batik clothes specifically on the first week of the month. Fridays on the other hand, they will wear a white Baju Melayu completed with a beautiful blue samping for the boys while Baju Kurung is worn by the girls.

The school stages an assembly every weekday morning in which started with shouting out 'KUSESS SUKSES' prayers are recited was then followed by the singing of Malaysia's national anthem (Negaraku), the Selangor State song and the school songs. The national pledge (Rukun Negara) is also recited during the assembly. It was then closed with sending regards to the teachers. During the days of Puan Rosida; the school's third principle, 'spot talk' was held during the assembly. A student is chosen at random and given a topic to talk about in English.

While in much more recent days, a speech or presentation regarding other language being teach at KUSESS during assembly such as Mandarin, Korean, Japanese, Arabic and German every Wednesday. This is so the student at KUSESS can learn other language than English and Malay.
