Both Beginning E le c tric ity
and Beginning Mechanics are
broad c lu ster courses where
students are exposed to and
encouraged to explore many
re la te d areas with a wide
range o f experiences to help
them to better understand and
prepare for a career in a
p a rtic u la r industry or ser
vice. Many in te re stin g jobs
are covered and the students
acquire further insight and
new goals for avocational, as
well as vocational choices.
All of the students are en
couraged to, continue th e ir
education. However, those who
do not plan to go beyond the
secondary level have received
basic vocational training for
job entry and the opportunity
for education in general.
Traditionally Indian schools
have had tra in in g programs
to prepare students for agri
culture work. The new tech
nology, machinery and re
search in new concepts and
program revision at Chemawa
for Agri-Science students.
The importance of teaching
vocational s k ills to Indian
children cannot be stressed
enough. The day has passed
when these stu d en ts could
expect to re tu rn to th e ir
reservations and herd sheep
or pick crops.
