Join the Movement: Support Senior Highschool Working Students!

Balancing school and work is never easy. Many students wake up early for classes, spend long hours at work, and stay up late just to study. It’s exhausting physically, mentally, and emotionally. Some miss deadlines because of their shifts, while others struggle to keep up with lessons after a long day of work. Yet, despite the hardships, they push forward, fueled by dreams and the hope of a better future.

The Work and Learn Coalition exists to support working students in their journey. We believe no one should have to choose between education and survival. That’s why we advocate for better policies, fair treatment, and greater awareness of the struggles these students face every day.

In our advocacy, we tell the real stories of working students, the sleepless nights, the sacrifices, the small victories that keep them going. We want their voices heard, their efforts recognized, and their needs addressed.

Be part of the change! Sign our petition and stand with working students. Together, we can build a future where education and work can go hand in hand without one suffering for the other.
