George Harvey Collegiate Institute (George Harvey CI, GHCI, also known simply as Harvey) was a high school in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was formerly known as George Harvey Vocational School and George Harvey Secondary School. It was located in the former suburb of York and was part of the Toronto District School Board. Before 1998, it was part of the Board of Education for the City of York.

The school opened in 1952 as the first vocational school in the former City of York for students who wanted to pursue skilled trades. It became a composite secondary school focused on technology and offered a STEPS to University program, as well as a program called Game Design. George Harvey was also the first TDSB school to provide netbooks to students.[1] The school ceased to exist as an individual school on June 30, 2022, when the student body consolidated with York Memorial Collegiate Institute, in the same building, which will operate until 2026.
