Developing Skills For The Future What did you take when you were tired of math, Eng- lish, social studies, and sci- ence? Actually every student had to take ten credits in vo- cational education — one of the easiest requirements to meet for graduation.

Accounting For Credits There were more students enrolled than needed credits in business and math. Gradu- ation required ten credits of math and consumer math or its equivalent. Business classes could fulfill the ten credits of vocational educa- tion requirement. Students, however, realized that skills learned in these classes could benefit them in college and jobs so they elect- ed to take more. College prep students could take four years of math. The business students could take typing, office oc- cupations, accounting, and data processing. 104 Business and Math
