The Coastline Regional Occupation Program KCROP5 offers numerous opportunities on campus for students to obtain specific job skill training. From food manage- ment training in the Campus Crock Pot to shop classes in Industrial Arts to computer programming and word processing, students are exposed to a variety of career- related options. CROP's support personnel offer exper- tise and equipment to help our students achieve quality levels of performance. Not all CROP experience is classroom instruction. Some involves actual on-the-job training, with one hour a week in the classroom with Work ExperiencefCROP coordinator George Green. Students in this program participate in a wide variety of experiences. Computer literacy is now a statewide goalg CROP helps us achieve it. Instructors in Traffic and Safety dedicate themselves to the safety of all drivers. lt is their goal that all drivers learn the proper way to drive, and the consequences of improper behav- ior on the road. lt becomes even more important for younger drivers to understand their responsi- bility, state Mr. Ralston and Mr. Rowan.
