The high school in our district has 2 trade schools as part of the campus, it is limited to car mechanics and logging, forestry. I wish they extended it to nursing and electrician, maybe they will someday. The mechanics part is cool, the garage I go to hires apprentices, and many of those boys went on to start their own business. Logging is difficult because the machinery alone is prohibitive, and the focus now is on pulp wood and chipped wood. Everyone is wanting pellet stoves, and pellets are coming from Canada. Pellets can be made from corn waste, weed trees,etc. I think nursing could be taught through High School, as a trade, and by graduation the students could take the exam.
