You may never use calculus unless you become amathematician, and you may never use history unless yourea history teacher.However, practical arts classes, such as nutrition andwellness, child development, engineering and design, are agood way for students to prepare for after high school.Unfortunately, practical arts classes are considered theless popular classes students take.But sophomore Kobe Davis disagrees. Davis believesthat engineering and design will help him prepare for thefuture and thinks more students should be involved with it.Many people think the required classes are moreimportant, but I think the practical arts classes help prepareyou more for the future, Davis said.Along with engineering and design, child developmentis considered one of the less popular classes, especially withmales. Senior Wayne Hastings is one of only two males inhis class.Not many males take this class because it is seen as agirly class, but if youre really interested in parenting orteaching in general, then people should consider taking it,Hastings said.Practical arts are considered underrated at North, butthey are more likely to help you in the future.Senior Mckenzey Ridge works on herpacket for Business Math.Senior Gabrielle Collard pours milk into ameasuring spoon for a pancake lab. |
