The PCHS/PCSS Alumni Association Scholarship Programme
The PCHS/PCSS Alumni Scholarship Program was created in 2001 and at that time donated $500.00 to an outstanding PCSS graduate. Thanks to the generous donations from PCHS and PCSS alumni at our annual alumni nights, we now award three scholarships of $750.00 each to outstanding students. Two scholarships honour University and/or College-bound students, and a third scholarship is presented in honour of Terry Garbutt, the founding member of the Alumni Association and recognizes a current graduating student's initiative, innovation and leadership within the school and community.

PCSS SciTech Programme
In September 2005, Port Credit Secondary School launched a Regional SciTech Program as an exciting option for students with a keen interest in science and technology. Students follow an integrated curriculum of science and technology throughout the four-year programme. Technology is integrated with other aspects of the curriculum in the senior grades. The PCHS/PCSS Alumni Association honoured SciTech students from 2009 to 2011. Fred Ketchen, PCHS 1954, now supports this scholarship starting 2012.
