I loved my shop classes in middle and high school! Back in the 60's and 70's we had to take these classes along with library, music and home economics. These classes produced a well rounded individual. Even if you did'nt go into a trade at least you learned how to hammer, cut wood, change a switch/receptacle etc, etc.

It's a damn shame that we, as a society, have let down our children in regard to a "whole" education.

There is a lot afterall, there is more to life other than math scores.
