Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

Page Content Co-operative Education 
Cooperative Education is an educational program that integrates classroom theory with practical experience in the workplace. The program is based on a partnership between the school and a business or community organization. It involves the participation of students, teachers and placement supervisors. This is a credit-earning program.
Unionville High School is proud to offer a variety of Cooperative Education experiences to support student learning.
This Cooperative Education program involves a full semester, planned learning experience which allows students to earn two to four credits. As is the case with all Cooperative Education programs, classroom learning is integrated with practical, real world, hands-on experiences in a relevant workplace which enables students to refine and apply the knowledge and skills acquired in a related curriculum course

take college or apprenticeship courses that count towards both the
Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) and a postsecondary certificate,
