Regional programs offered by the Peel District School Board empower students by providing an opportunity to develop and explore skills in a particular area of interest. At Port Credit we have two regional programs, SciTech and Strings.

The SciTech program integrates a hands-on, minds-on philosophy and provides students with an interactive approach to learning. The program is enhanced through the science and technology curriculum and through participation in activities such as excursions, guest speakers, competitions and clubs.

Students enrolled in the Regional Strings program (for violin, viola, cello and bass) have the opportunity to explore the many facets of string playing through Chamber Strings (for advanced players), Intermediate Strings (for students with one or two years experience), and Beginning Strings (for students with no previous experience). While still completing the Ontario curriculum, students in the strings program will experience a range of musical opportunities including performing with full orchestra and ensemble, professional coaching sessions, attendance at live concerts and rehearsals, master classes with professional musicians, and an educational excursion to Europe in alternate years. Students receive a certificate upon completion of the four-year program.
