This proposal asks for investment in Career readiness taught at the high school level.
High school age students have for years been pushed to 4 year schools after graduation.
I work as support staff in Pennsylvania at a Career and technical center. 10-12 grade students learn the required courses AND a trade. Our kids graduate with no debt and an education in welding, electrical, auto, cosmetology, heath, etc.
We are understaffed and underfunded. Teachers need more equipment and learning materials. Our shops don’t have enough in their budget.
Teachers beg for aids and more support staff to help their kids learn.
Help us invest in kids who will be ready to walk into demanding fields
