How many of y'all had shop classes in high school?

[Alvin]

I'm talking masonry, welding, mechanic class, wood shop. Watching shows growing up I thought we would have the opportunity to do that in high school and my school ain't have shyt! (It was known for performing arts and theater)

Cut the shyt out of my finger on the glass cutter ..

Still got the scar smh ..

 

[Chrishaune]

yes

the class was called "shop class"...a few girls in that class

The girls had "home economics"......some dudes were in that class too.

I can't even remember all of the things we did. Lathe, welding, cutting, building, etc.

I had a shop like class in Jr. High but I can't remember the name. We made rockets, CO2 cars with balsa wood, got to lathe some wooden blocks down and laquer them for our own pens. Couple of things with plastic... It was the shyt Never got the chance to take shop proper but I definitely would have

 

[Peter Popoff]

I did.

 

[Mastamimd]

Wood and electronics shop...a little welding too. I didn't really take it seriously but it was the most underrated class I ever had

The only black male teacher I had in K-12 too

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

We did, but I never took them. I regret it, because it would have come in handy with renovations, and I could have saved money instead of hiring people.

I took welding and agriculrure (same class). I wanted to take auto class, but it was always quickly filled up when class selections took place. Had fun welding though.

 

[old pig]

we had PTL…can’t even remember what that stood for…we had to make cars out of wood that ran on CO2 cartridges I think

*edit*

nah I wouldn’t count that as a shop class tho

Yup. We had an HVAC class too. And the credits for that class transferred to help get a certification if you wanted it.

We had co-ops at the local community college for people that wanted to do those things. We did have one auto-shop teacher at the actual school.

 

[Human Torch]

We actually had woodshop as an elective in middle but the teacher was missing a thumb so I was good


Took art instead

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

None in high school but had it for two years in Junior high school. It was called technology class.

 

[boriquaking]

We had the class, but I never had the pleasure of taking it. My brother did though, he built a table i stole and kept to this day!

 

[Crizzy]

Only in middle school
