Student plus near-perfect attendance equals free truck at Manitoba high school
DAUPHIN, Man. — Students at a Manitoba high school have a major incentive to show up for class — they could start their summer driving a truck.
Kids with 90 per cent attendance at Dauphin Regional Comprehensive Secondary School are entered in a draw to win the vehicle at the end of the year.
“Our motto is if you are here we can build relationships,” teacher Patty Goodine said Wednesday.
“The idea behind this is to help guide the students and help them become successful and graduate and to open doors to many options for their future.”
