Welcome to the CO-OPERATIVE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT

Department Head:  Mrs. G. Sotiriou

The Co-operative Education program provides a valuable experience whereby students can earn credits towards a graduation diploma while working part of the school day.  Students are placed in a meaningful work situation in the community with ongoing contact by their monitoring teacher.

Admission to the program and placement in a work station is determined after a personal interview with the Co-operative Education teachers in Room 3007.  The student's past performance and attendance record will be considered in the selection process.  Students may choose to take further placements in Co-op after completing all compulsory diploma requirements.

A separate application form and 3 teacher references for Co-operative Education must be completed and returned with the student's course selection sheet.  These forms may be obtained from the Co-op Department.  Some costs may be incurred by students depending on the placement (ex. transportation).  Students will be informed prior to accepting a placements if any costs are involved.
