The school provides instruction related to the studentis work while the employer pro- vides planned work experience. The advantages of the retail co-op program are many: exposure to adult standards of courtesy and personal responsibility, development of lasting skills in dealing with supervisors, fellow employees, and the public, opportunity to earn needed income for many purposes, often including college expenses, and ac- quaintance with over eight hundred career opportunities in the retail industry. The high school students of today are the future of the retailing industry of tomorrow. For this reason, PCHS seniors are offered the opportunity to participate in the co-op work experience. An aid to this experience is the addition of an hour to the school day. This permits co-op students to begin school at 7:30 a.m., attend four required classes, and leave the building before noon, thus giving a full after- noon to their co-op job. ,f:f.f:ff ' '
