Orillia Secondary School, was established in 2015, following the 2013 merger of Orillia District Collegiate & Vocational Institute and Park Street Collegiate Institute. The school has a population of about 1000 students. The new school building was built between 2014 and 2016, and is equipped with a triple gymnasium, technology rooms, a library, and cafeteria. The principal is Peter Bowman.
After the 2012–2013 academic year, Orillia District Collegiate & Vocational Institute was merged with Park Street Collegiate Institute, which was demolished so that a new school could be built on its former site, at the intersection of Park Street and Collegiate Drive.[1][2][3]
