please take time to read this message;
it 'could change your entire future.
The greatest asset of a young persori startin out' in
life is a broadeneral education. In an�;acOe of tr sition
and rapid change, it is difficult to see thelrequirements
for.the future. -For this reason the young man or woman
who has acquired knowledge, broadened his mind and
developed his potential will have an 'advantage. In
Canada where over half of 'the population is under
twenty-five years of age, the competition for positions in
industry, businegs and the professions has become more
intensified.
The Secondary School Graduation Diploma offers a
student a greater chance for success in a highly eorn-
petitive
society. Education, however, offers much,mor-e
than the diploma. Student activities are a `vital part'of
school .life. The opportunities to organize and plan, to
4 assume leadership roles, to gain recognition and
identity, and to mature socially are realized to a
significant degree through involvement, in the student
activities programme.
While schools emphasize scholastic `s'kills, they also
aim to -provide students with the capabilities to ap=
preciate culturarar' t soul '1"`differences, to understand
the physical•world and man's relation to it, to reflect on
goals in life.and to determine personal goals. Education.
can .develop enduring values through- which the in-
dividual can achieve personal happiness, and also make'
a worthwhile contribution to the needs of others.
