A hie vers offered mployment kill To help juniors and seniors pre- pare for life after high school, Tokay offered job training through the Work Experience program and the Regional Occupational Program iROPl. Work Experience provided on- the-job training. According to Ro- bert Dickson, Work Experience coordinator, in order to get credit for the class, a student had to turn in a time sheet on which he recorded his hours by the week. According to Mr. Dickson, students did not get credit for the job, but for skills learned on thejob. There were a lot of qualified people who teach other than teachers, said lVlr. Dickson. Work Experience made these people available to students. To assist Mr. Dickson, Steve Reutlinger was added to the Work Experience staff in November. lVlr. Rutlinger worked part time with Work Experience, part time in the Career Center, and part time as a teacher's aid coordinator. Where Work Experience taught many varied skills, ROP was a specialized training program. Ac- cording to the California Education Code, all high schools had to offer a program for students to attain entry-level employment skills in bu- siness or industry. Tokay's ROP offered training for office jobs, and for medical and technical careers. lra Borofsky was coordinator of vocational education at the Lodi Adult School where ROP was based. According to Mr. Borofsky, roughly 10 percent of juniors and seniors were invloved in ROP, roughly one half of those went to work directly after high school. The other half went on to advanced education, and used their training to work themselves through college. by Jill Stapleton photos by Matthew Silber 1.
