For the future, perseverance is always in the present tense
Starting February 16, 2026, celebrate Hooked on School Days 2026!
Since 2004, Hooked on School Days (HSD) has mobilized all of Québec to highlight the value of staying in school and encouraging academic success. When we encourage, listen to, support, and guide our young people, their determination and perseverance shines through. Let’s give them what they need to believe in their dreams, unlock their potential, and persevere.
Perseverance makes a world of difference!
During Hooked on School Days, let’s renew our collective commitment to supporting young students. Help them overcome everyday challenges. Don’t hesitate to acknowledge instances when perseverance has paid off. Recognize small successes as often as possible. Whether you’re a relative, teacher, educator, employer, school-based practitioner, school support staff, or community organization worker, your actions and your presence make a real difference in each student’s chances of success.
The school perseverance ribbon
Green symbolizes youth and hope. It represents the young people who need our recognition and support every day in order to persevere. Wearing the school perseverance ribbon expresses your commitment to support young people in their efforts to succeed at school.
