North Henderson High

"I feel the curriculum is below standard for the students today. The schools focus on preparing students for college. Not all student are geared for college and the schools do not offer enough vocational programs, such as business, electronics, engineering, construction, automotive, fashion and cooking classes. Making PE an elective only has reflected on the obesity seen in many students today. Many seniors have no idea what their golds are when they will graduate. Due to today's economy many students will not be able to either qualify for college and will have to find a vocational school to learn a vocation that could have been taught in high school. I graduated in 1959 and attended high school where there were vocational departments. Graduating with a business diploma I was able to acquire a position with the Social Security Administration. Both brothers obtained a mechanical diploma in preparation for a position in engineering and electronics. Continuing into college to future their education and attain BA and Master Degrees. Many students cannot even obtain a part time job until they are 18 years of age. So where are the educators today to guide these students to a career. I have not found any that have the answer."
