Geocache Description:

Congratulations to River_runr for FTF!

Once the puzzle is solved, the cache should be easy to find.

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates, but is nearby. The posted coordinates are for parking.

The York Region District School Board (YRDSB) introduced a new course, Career Studies, in 2002, which is a compulsory half-credit course designed to encourage students to explore all possible destinations after high school and to help students match their skills, interests, and abilities to those possible destinations.

Vaughan Secondary School (VSS) held a Career Studies Guest Speaker Seminar and I was invited to share information on careers in Geography, so what better way to get the students excited about Geography than to introduce them to Geocaching!

To solve the puzzle, make sure to brush up those math skills you've learned before entering high school.

The actual coordinates are very close to the ones posted:
N 43° 46.(480 + two digit number that sums to 14)'
W 079° 30.(374 - two digit number that sums to 3)'

Here's a little reminder for those who are scratching there heads right now:
If you have a two digit number of 13 then 1+3 adds up to 4.

The sum of these mystery two digit numbers is exactly 1.7 less than VSS' radio station and one of these two digit numbers is the highest grade level taught at this school.

I think I said too much! Good luck caching!
