Roger Simpson the teacher-co¬ ordinator for the Cooperative Educa¬ tion Program at tho Huntley High School gave a talk about the pro¬ gram. Mr. Simpsoji related that the vocational program is a co¬ operative arrangement between the school and the local employers who provide these students with actual work experiences during their junior and senior years in high school. The students receive occupa¬ tional skills and job intelligence in the correlated classi-oom instruc¬ tion, plus actual specialized skills and vocational knowledge through their on-the-job training in the local business community.
These two experierwes are planned and supervised by the school and the employers. The program will enable the students to plan for their careers prior to their graduation.
Additional experiences will be learned through Vocational Indus¬ trial Clubs of America (VICA). This youth club will provide effective laemings eituations as the students assume the major responsibilities for the planning and conducting cf their own activities. This organiza¬ tion is a means of helping students develop leadership and group mem¬ bership skills which prepares them for satisfying adult citizen-worker roles.
This program is only one part of the total vocational program which is being developed in the Huntley Consolidated School system. Indus¬ trial Arts has been added to the high school and typing and arts and crafts have been added to the junior high curriculum.
