Mr. Chairman, there are a couple of approaches at the junior high level that I think are important. One is that we feel that information on careers and career planning needs to be introduced to students at an earlier age. It can be integrated into the junior high curriculum quite easily. As well, the opportunities for students to gain some experience in occupations is also quite possible at the junior high level.

At the senior high level, we think we should build not only on the existing SNAP program, but we should look at what other resources are available in our communities for programming and look at, for example, cooperative placements for high school students. I think there is a series of strategies building on what the resources are at the community level that can be used. Thank you.
