There is an increasing use of new technology, especially computers, in each of the subject areas. In addition, there is a continuing emphasis on teaching students to apply academic skills such as language, mathematics, and science within the vocational subjects. Special programs are available at each high school which provide assistance to students with handicapping conditions, limited English proficiency or disadvantaged, to ensure academic success. Each of the students enrolled in the program receives a vocational assessment and an individual vocational education plan. Co-op programs are available to students who desire on the job training.
Students gain valuable experience and apply knowledge they received in vocational education classes.
This is an opportunity to work for a major company and see the world of work in action. For more information, contact Dan Bridges, Director of Vocational Education, 867-5571.
