I get it. The days of my youth the push was always more education, also. However, we had those shop classes all throughout high school, at least to give the idea that if more education wasn't for you, there was other options.

Are they doing anything differently now that everyone is realizing the IT industry is completely flooded and the trades are in dire need of new blood? I'm hearing shop classes are making their way back into some of the schools that removed them around these parts (luckily those schools weren't near me).
