Co-op Earn While You Learn Members of Co-op are students who earn while they learn. The Co-op program offers two academic courses and a class of Co-op in the morning. Students spend their afternoon hours working at various firms and businesses around town. This provides students with an opportunity to learn a trade while they are getting paid for their work. Formerly, only seniors were offered this opportunity. This year juniors were also given a chance. To Co-op students, school is more than just hitting the books: it's a valuable experience for the future.
