Our actions
School perseverance, in its most simple definition, means steadfastly following a program of studies in order to earn a school diploma or qualification allowing a student to play an active role in society.
The term is often used in opposition to dropping out of school, a complex problem of which the causes are many.
Fondation La Clé believes that encouraging school perseverance involves not only providing direct help with studies, but also a wide range of activities to encourage initiative, creativity, pride and self-esteem.
