Looking back, I think those were the courses I loved the most in high school. Lol I just loved the cooking and eating part. As for sewing...uuummm all I can remember is I started working on a nightgown that I never finished. Hehe.

From what I have seen and heard, very few these days. Many schools including middle, are becoming 'magnet' in that they are structured to enhance their attendance by offering courses that appeal to students. I teach at a middle magnet school and out speciality is - Arts", Dance" Drama, Music : Band and Vocal' It attracts students from all over the metro area and when they leave, there is a high school they can matriulate to that focuses on the same. When I was in high school, I attended a 'comprehensive' high school and we had everything - including - auto body shop, woodcutting, business, college prep, cosmopolitan, home ec. Today, some of our high schools provide some of these options- including, Culinary Arts which is what my daughter's focus was. I wished I had learned to sew but they would not allow us to 'cross-programs' - if you were college prep - all your courses had to be in that field.

i'm no longer an atheist, yet i'd help certainly one of those type. some colleges do supply training like that, and maximum faculties do to boot. I purely took a form like that for the duration of school, yet considering we do issues via semester in college, we purely had time to cover Hinduism, Christianity, and Islam. It replaced into exciting, yet i'd have liked to cover greater religions. i'm involved via the assumption structures of human beings whilst quickly as I disagree with them. a international religions non-compulsory would have been impressive in severe college. It facilitates to develop the minds of young babies and facilitates them to realize that distinctive human beings see issues in a distinctive way from themselves. it would help us to greater effective comprehend one yet another and serve a matching functionality to distant places language training that all of us take at school.

Yeah, those were the good old days. Now all I do is sit in my half sewn nightgown watching the soaps and eating bonbons.
I can't forget my 30 minutes of massage therapy everyday:

Middle schools have them now. :) At my daughter's school, instead of choosing between something like home ec and industrial arts (shop), they take both. :) Good skills for kids to learn. :)
