Tired Of Sitting? v JL ' U' J cami Jim At East Gaston High School, vocational courses play a big part in a student's education. Every student must take at least one voca- tional course in order to graduate, with any kind of diploma. Vocational courses may vary from Typing I and Home Economics to Auto Mechanics and Carpentry. Many people say that some of the courses are ex- tremely easy, but the voca- tional courses take reading and development and prac- tice of a skill in order for the student to be prepared for a chosen vocation. As Brian Wyant, a junior, says, It's not that the courses are hard, it's that you have to know what you're doing to be succesful. A great deal of it is 'hands-on' training. There will always be a dif- ference in opinion about vo- cational courses. Either easy or hard, they will prepare a person for life in the long run. Getting a physical education can be hard work. It is not all sweat, though. It can be a lot of fun! Heather McAlpine and Tammy Bethune are prepar- ing for their future by learning about computers.
