Your Community School
Prince Edward Collegiate Institute (PECI) is your community K-12 school located in Picton, Ontario serving over 1000 students from across Prince Edward County. With rich learning experiences for students of all ages, a variety of athletic & extra-curricular opportunities, and excellent facilities, PECI continues a more than 60-year tradition of serving the families of Prince Edward County to ensure our young people experience success at school and beyond. -
Globally Minded Leaders & Learners
We believe that the most important people in the world walk our halls and aspire to create learning opportunities where our students can see themselves as connected citizens of the world. Our learners apply their knowledge and skills to make a difference in their local, national, and global communities. -
Academic Excellence
Our focus on academic excellence means we are committed to the continuous development of dynamic, inclusive educational experiences. We believe in learning opportunities that ensure that all of our students grow as capable, confident, curious learners who experience success. -
Dedication to the Arts
We believe that communication through self-expression is essential to the creative development of each student, K-12. In classrooms and dedicated courses students are encouraged to explore their own dramatic, musical and visual arts abilities. Students across grades have access to learning spaces and resources that allow them to develop talents connected to the Arts. -
Innovating With Technology
Technological innovation influences all areas of life. Technological education at PECI in both our classrooms and dedicated course studies focuses on developing students’ ability to work creatively and competently with technologies to be able to meet the challenges and opportunities of the twenty-first century. -
Learning Through Athletics
Physical activity and athletics have a major impact on students both in and out of the classroom. At PECI, our students learn about the connection between healthy bodies and health minds. As members of extra-curricular sports teams, they learn leadership, the importance of working together as a team and strength of character. -
Digital Citizens Learning & Embracing Possibilities Today & Tomorrow
Our students are highly connected as they leverage digital formats. They learn how to self-regulate and manage the tools of our 21st century world in order to position themselves as active leaders and learners today and tomorrow! -
Feel The Spirit of Prince Edward Collegiate Institute
The ultimate student experience that engaged the whole student is our primary focus, with an emphasis on mental, physical, emotional and intellectual well-being. We offer a highly supportive environment, a profound sense of community, and a commitment to Panther pride where school spirit is contagious!

Panther Parents: Your K-12 Community School believes that transitions matter and we are thrilled to extend a personal invitation to the following two orientation programs:
Attention Kindergarten Panther Parents
The dawn of a new school year is in sight and PECI is proud to invite you to our 2018 Kindergarten orientation on Wednesday, August 29th. This will be a drop in format between 9:00 and 11:00 am and offer an opportunity to meet our staff, ask any questions that may be of concern and discuss any additional considerations you wish.
Construction crews are continuing to work hard preparing our new learning spaces and we are excited for the opportunities that these new environments will hold in store. As a result, we will be meeting in our Library for the orientation session. We will be hosting an elementary open house early in the school year to offer parents a chance to see the actual new classroom spaces.
We look forward to meeting you and creating new beginnings together. Please reach out if you have any questions. See you soon!
Attention Grade 9 Panthers & Parents
The 2018-19 school year is almost here and PECI is excited to invite you to our 2018 Grade 9 Panther orientation on Wednesday, August 29th from 9:00 to 11:00 am. This is a great opportunity to meet new friends, receive a copy of your timetable, find your classes and locker and ask any questions that you may have before the big day arrives!
The program is led by students, for students and is a great opportunity to engage prior to busyness of the first day.
We look forward to meeting you and creating new beginnings together. Please reach out if you have any questions. See you soon!
Panther Families Update: Helpful Reminders
Panther Families Update: One sleep left until the 2018-19 school year begins. It has been an incredibly busy weekend finalizing all of the preparations as we look forward to welcoming the first classes ever in our K-12 community school setting. The following is a list of helpful reminders for our school community in order to allow our learning space to be productive, safe and maximize opportunity.
Entry/Exit Points:
All Secondary students will enter/exit through Entrances A, B, C1 and W.
Elementary bus students will enter/exit through Entrance D until the new handrail is installed on Entrance C—at that time, it will become the main entrance for elementary students.
Parents dropping off elementary students may do so at Entrance E—also known as our ‘Kiss & Drop’ or at the main office through Entrance A. Please refer to the map and photos included for more detail.
Classroom Teacher Assignments and Student Timetables:
We are fortunate to have a significant number of new registrations joining our Panther family throughout all grades and we have spent the weekend balancing classes. Classroom teacher assignments for elementary will be shared on the first day. Students will be greeted from the bus and directed to gathering areas as previously described. Should it be raining in the morning (and the weather looks perfect now), we will have our students who plan to gather outside relocated to the cafeteria for to meet their teachers.
Secondary timetables will be distributed in homerooms. Students may locate their homeroom from walls either outside the main office OR outside the cafeteria by the staffroom.
Student Parking:
Parking will be extremely limited this year and by parking permit only in order that we have adequate room for staff. There will be a few Student Parking spaces on campus and those will be assigned by application/need only. Parking Permit applications will be available at the main office and online beginning the first day of classes. Students are encouraged to take the bus those who must drive are encouraged to park across at the Community Soccer field lot for the first week of school while the improvements to the parking lot are completed and as we work through the assignment of permits. Vehicles onsite without a pass are subject to being towed at the owners expense. Thank you for your cooperation.
We would like to thank ALL of our staff and entire school community for all of their collective investment in ensuring the New K-12 Prince Edward Collegiate Institute has a fantastic start to the school year. We look forward to our new beginning tomorrow.
