    Today is the first day of the rest of my life

    So in my county we have this thing called JVS (Joint vocational school)
    Its a program that takes people from the normal high school and lets the go to the community college for whatever they signed up for. Each school lets around...2-3 bus loads of students (sophmores) into this program for the next 2 years of their high school career. Depending on the program...its either a half day or a full day at JVS.

    I signed up for it....around 3 months ago, for web and graphic design and i got a letter today from them.




    Im so happy!!!!

      America needs more Vocational schools. I see nothing wrong with specializing in a trade and then just sticking too it.

      Congrats on getting accepted into the program you wanted. My school has something similar, and I know a lot of kids who've received a decent education from it on their way to 2 year colleges.

          : )
          Thanks!

          Oh yea, and i really think they need more of these too. A lot of kids arnt exactly "bright" like myself. Thats 1 reason why i decided to apply. I could deal with working with a computer all day, instead of the math and writing like in school. I dont get that stuff, and the 5 tutors i had didnt help me either. This was a great oppprtunity for me to get through highschool and start a decent job out of it too.

              Cool, good for you. Hope you have fun.

              I have something similar that I'm doing, but it's the local university, and not a vocational school. It's awesome.

                  Yeah, that's a definite shortcoming of the education system. Not every student can make it to college, and because of that, they can't get jobs, so like Tps said, it's great to see that you're going into this vocational program and you can do something you want.

                  Good luck, and congratulations!

                                  Congratulations. Nice choice in vocation as well.

                                  Is this something that can transfer to a community college? As far as I know, most Web design programs are one-year certificates, so if something transfers, you could walk out of high school with a college certificate. I missed walking out of high school with two associate degrees by one semester.

                                  And, as they always say, it is a small world - I almost attended school at Lorain Community College to transfer to a Cleveland area university.

                                      Yes, actually i believe this program does get me 2 or 3 college credits towards this college (LCCC) and i dont know what other colleges accept this, but i know LCCC does.
