History and facilities
Penticton High School opened on the current site in 1913 in the Ellis building, and in 1921 expanded into the new Shatford building, named after the recently deceased former Member of the Legislative Assembly in British Columbia and later Senator Lytton Shatford. Shatford's company had purchased the Ellis estate on whose land the school would be established. The buildings have also been known as the Ellis School and the Shatford School, respectively.

Numerous renovations and expansions occurred from the 1940s on. A new facility was constructed on the same campus during 2006–2008 at a capital cost of $38 million. The school district agreed to maintain the Ellis building, which was upgraded and incorporated into the new school at a cost of $3.1 million, and the city took responsibility for the Shatford building. The new building's design incorporated energy efficient strategies, including a geothermal heating system.

The Shatford Centre is one of two heritage buildings on the PSS campus. Its renovation was completed in 2011 and was funded by the school district, the local, provincial, and federal governments, and other public and private entities. The Shatford building has been renamed The Shatford Centre which operates as a conference centre and events facility, and houses the Okanagan School of the Arts.

The graduation of the class of 1975 was the topic of the short NFB documentary Pen-Hi Grad by Sandy Wilson.
