Click on link below for a November 29th, 2012, Missoulian article on what is happening in shop class at Big Sky High School.
The subtitle for the article reads, "Big Sky shop class crafts snowboards, skis. The article is written by Betsy Cohen, the reporter recently assigned to report on Missoula area school news.
Big Sky High students craft skis, snowboards; raffle planned
missoula schools watchdog is a proponent of shop class in our middle schools and in our high schools as well.
There seems to be lack in this area in MCPS schools in the younger grades.
Yes, it's nice for girls to learn about areas of a shop curriculum and for boys to learn about cooking.
However, it seemed to be beneficial to divide the girls and boys into home ec and shop classes respectively as was done for decades.
missoula schools watchdog is an advocate for neighborhood schools, district transparency and accountability, a basic education (the three R's), and a K-8 grade school configuration. missoula schools watchdog does not advocate closing or selling our schools, unnecessary busing, public schools helping private schools such as Missoula International School, irresponsible spending, and unnecessary and expensive programs such as the IB program.
