For the sixth consecutive year, at the invitation of the Comit\u00e9 r\u00e9gional pour la valorisation de l'\u00e9ducation (CREVALE), the Lanaudi\u00e8re region is taking part in the <i>Hooked on School Days<\/i> (JPS). Staying in school is a real social issue. More than one in four young Quebecers will not have obtained a diploma by the age of 20, which underlines the importance of maintaining efforts to encourage young people to stay in school and graduate. Studies show that every student who perseveres and obtains a first qualifying diploma will have better living conditions and a longer life expectancy. This year, the region broke its participation record. A total of 406 organizations, including 154 OSER-JEUNES-certified employers, are taking part in this sixth edition. All are demonstrating their originality in promoting school perseverance and its determinants, encouraging young people and adults in training, and valuing education. CREVALE invites the public to join in the celebrations and participate in large numbers. For detailed programming in your MRC, see other text or visit crevale.org.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This great wave of support will also flood social media. People will be able to follow Lanaudi\u00e8re's activities and show their support on facebook.com\/crevale, facebook.com\/oserjeunes and youtube.com\/crevale, where daily photos and videos will be uploaded.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.presse-lanaudiere.ca\/2014\/02\/journees-de-la-perseverance-scolaire-on-celebre-en-grand-dans-la-mrc-matawinie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See article: Hooked on School Days Matawinie MRC celebrates in style<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Participate, encourage, inform<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Every young person needs encouragement, every day... even the older ones!
