Park Street Collegiate Institute (PSCI) was a secondary school located in Orillia, Ontario, Canada. It has never been called "Orillia Park Street Collegiate" as suggested by the name of this page. It was built in 1961 to help with the overflow of students from Orillia District Collegiate & Vocational Institute. In March 2008, a review process was to have begun to consolidate Orillia's three public high schools into two buildings as a result of cost of maintenance of the aging buildings and the declining enrolment at PSCI.
Park Street had a capacity of 1011 students but, as of 2006, less than 900 students were enrolled.
On 28 November 2007, a bomb threat written on a mirror in a student washroom caused great concern and students were kept in classes in a school lockdown for the morning as police cleared the building room by room. Nothing suspicious was found and students returned to classes following an extended lunch break.
The school was closed and demolished in 2013, and a new school was planned to be built in its place, which replaces Orillia Park Street Collegiate and Orillia District Collegiate & Vocational Institute.
PSCI has a Construction Craft Program in Grade 11, partnership with the YMCA and CAPC for a Young Parent Education Support Program, Life Skills courses, Co-operative education program, and a private nursery school that links to parenting courses. Other programs include: a Latin program, full music, art and drama programs, electronics, transportation, construction, yearbook, manufacturing, drafting, model construction, and computer technology.
