Whatever happened to shop classes?
Reminds me of the teens in West Side Story!
Wood shop Grade 10, Metal shop Grade 11, electrical shop Grade 12, required for all boys.
I got more out of them than anything else in high school, and they certainly didn’t slow me down from getting into college or medical school when it was time.

The educational bureaucracy now insist that everyone must go to college, hopefully at taxpayer expense, even the ones who do not have the ability or desire to get through a much watered-down high school curriculum.

They made girls and minorities feel bad.
They weren’t the college track that K-12 pushes hard (the final indoctrination centers).
Graduates from them showed college was’t required for many living wage jobs.
They disappeared when mass production, assembly lines and then robots came on the scene.
