FROM SOME OF OUR STUDENTS...
"Most people think co-op is just an easy course, and I'm not going to lie, I was one of them, but it turns out co-op is actually a lot of work. It's not hard, but there are a lot of projects that have to be done. I also feel a sense of accomplishment at the end of every day which I don't get out of a normal school day. With co-op I have the opportunity to help others, and at the end of the day I feel good about myself."
"Co-op allowed me to express myself in a way that was exciting, new and also life teaching. Co-op makes you think on your feet, it teaches you independence and self confidence."
"The last six weeks have been exciting, fun, and completely different to what I'm used to. Usually when I come to school I'm tired, lazy, and bored for the whole school day. But now as soon as second period ends it's like a bolt of lightning. I feel awake and ready to work. It's like having a cup of coffee."
"My Co-op placement has improved my communication skills, which is vital in today's workforce."
