High School Co-ops is designed to be a one-stop site for parents, students, and teachers in finding current local businesses that are eager to involve students in cooperative education placements in Ontario. You will gain access to multiple businesses within your local area and obtain such necessary information as: company location and contact information, the number of available student placements at each company, participation in specialty programs such as OYAP (Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program) and SHSM (Specialist High Skills Major), possible schedules/shifts available (i.e. mornings, afternoons, weekends, full days, etc.), and pertinent information regarding on-site requirements (e.g. WHMIS training, criminal reference check, etc.). The founder, Thoywell Hemmings, also currently is administrating a cooperative education program called Pursue at King's Christian Collegiate; thus, we as an organization understand the frustration in locating up-to-date, relevant, interesting, and advanced co-op placements for students. This site will not only ease the frustrations of teachers trying to find businesses that will take on high school students, but will also empower parents and students to choose the type of co-op placement they prefer and the organization in which they would like to work throughout the semester. To be the best resource for parents, students, and teachers in finding relevant and up-to-date co-operative education placements across Ontario. Our Mission? Our mission is to establish High School Co-ops as the best, most convenient resource to find co-operative education placements in a geographical area, based on ease-of-use and reliability.
