Take Our Kids to Work™ Day is a national initiative that allows Grade 9 students to trade in their school books to spend a day at work with a parent, relative, friend or volunteer host. 

In Niagara, the BEC co-ordinates this program with assistance and support from both area school boards - District School Board of Niagara and Niagara Catholic District School Board - as well as strong support from the business community. 

We would like to extend our appreciation to all of the Niagara area businesses, parents, teachers, students and our Niagara region sponsors - Mountainview Properties - for their participation and continued support. Don't forget to mark your calendar for Take Our Kids To Work on November 5th, 2008!

For more information please call 905-684-7200 ext.1711.
