High School Education and Ontario

Ontario: We need to make sure high school education is part of the agenda these are the vital years that set the tone for a young person's future. , according to Hamilton Spectator. More than 200,000 of our young people in low-income communities across Ontario are under threat of not graduating. In some areas, more youth are dropping out than graduating. Education is the great leveler but simply being able to walk through a high schools doors is not enough. Getting Ontario's education system right has never been more important. Global economic realities are challenging us to rethink the way we approach post-secondary education, from vocational training all the way to university research. It may be tempting to think Ontario has high school all figured out. After all, a report released this month shows the province's graduate rate is stable at 83 per cent. But those headline numbers mask an underlying crisis. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
