A Good Experience “It’s the same type of training you would get at a vocational college like Ivy Tech but this way you can do it while you're still in high school and get a job immediately after getting out. Also, Hauser pays the costs of Blue River while you would pay for the schooling at Ivy Tech, explained guidance counselor, Mr. Jack Huff. Experienced instructors and up-to-date equipment set the atmosphere at Blue River. Students receive six credits per year for the three period day they attend. “One period is actual book work that the students do and the other two periods are lab work. This is the time they get practice in their area of interest,” stated Mr. Huff. “The work is difficult and the teachers really expect a lot from us but I think the experience is very good. I'm learning a lot and I think this is really preparing me well to get a job,” concluded Tim Ross. Angie Titus types a letter on a word processor at Blue River. The document can be typed on a word processor and all mistakes can be corrected before the final is printed out. Jeff Banks uses a mill to drill holes in the bottle openers.

Preparing For The Future “I think it was a good experience. You learned both the good and bad sides of the career you wanted,” stated freshman Gary Clark of the career study done by Hauser General Business classes this year. “You learned some of the personal things you wouldn't get out of a book,” added Sondra Linke. “All the students did a self-evaluation of some of their likes and dislikes to help them get an idea of what type of career they wanted,” stated teacher Mrs. Donna Sanders. “From there they did research, talked with the guidance department, and interviewed someone in their choice of career. A few people even got to shadow someone on their job. ‘I think it was very helpful to me. I found out there were some things 1 didn't like about the job and that it involved a lot more schooling than I thought. Now I still have time to change my major and concentrate on another career,” concluded sophomore Paul Thompson. Tammy Saltsman takes a timed writing in Typing II.
