Grubb

Grubb has a thought that high schools should become more geared toward occupations rather then general studies. As a student that has had opportunity to take classes that show specific work environments that have been geared toward learning for the job rather then the class, I think that this could be a good thing for many high schools. It would help students to decided fully if that career is something that they could pursue for the rest of their lives. Where as some people never get the chance to learn how jobs work and what would be asked of them in a certain field of study. When I took Sports Medicine in high school I was able to get a good idea as to what would be asked of me in that field of work. At the end of the year I still was in love with the idea of helping people and doing something hands on however I wasn't very excited about becoming an athletic trainer. So I enrolled at SFCC so that I could take a variety of classes and try to find a career that i would enjoy. I wish that my high school, like Grubb's argument, would have offered more chances to study more jobs so that i could be set on more of a path rather than taking general studies. His ideas would allow students to really focus on life rather then just trying to make it out of high school with a diploma.
