My district in NY had a very specific curriculum for kids not on a college path. They spent 1/2 the day in traditional classes then get bused to a trade school learning welding, crane operating, truck driving, and plumbing amongst other things. We really have focused too much on high school being a pipeline for college.
We have several magnet programs across the district that have been established for a decade or more that teaches trades.
The problem here hasn’t been the program itself. It’s been parents acknowledging their little special snowflake can be a functional human being in society working a trade and not going to college.
Parents push that college pipeline as hard as anyone.
