everyone can persevere.

From February 13 to 17, 2023, Hooked on School Days pays tribute to all the people in young Quebecer’s lives who make a difference. We recognize their crucial role in students’ motivation, resilience, and self-confidence, and we salute their commitment to making perseverance at school a priority. Their congratulations, guidance, encouragement, explanations, sympathetic ear, and support are of great benefit to young people, and indeed to all of society.

Persevering at school

Encouraging students to stay motivated at school can have a meaningful impact on their schooling. Every student who stays the course and earns a diploma or qualification is another person who breaks the school dropout cycle and heads toward a better future. Let’s continue to support the efforts of all our students so that they can achieve their potential.School perseverance is everybody’s business, every day!
