Brockville Collegiate Institute (BCI) is a Brockville public intermediate and high school that follows the Ontario curriculum.

The French immersion and extended core French programs involve approximately 125 students in grades 9–12. Business, mathematics, computers, science, liberal arts, and communication programs have produced many graduates, who have gone on to pursue careers in medicine, engineering, law, computer technology and business.

The school draws from ten public elementary schools, one separate elementary school, and one French Catholic elementary school and represent a variety of ethno-cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. It has a high level of student leadership and participation in many school activities including athletic Association, student council, yearbook, sound and lighting crew and the arts program. Nine tenths of the students pursues studies at the postsecondary level.

The longstanding motto is "Excellence in Academics, Arts & Athletics"

A number of school partnerships are linked to the co-operative education program; each year, 50–60 students are placed with employers in the Brockville community.

Students benefit from community participation and support in band boosters club, football group, and alumni. Those groups raise a good deal of money, which contributes to the football program, the purchase of musical instruments, auditorium renovations, and more than $30,000 annually in scholarships.

The school facilities (the auditorium and the gymnasium) are used by many community groups. Students are also involved in volunteering with community organizations and elementary schools.
