Bummer.
The junior high I took 3 years of woodworking at dumped the woodworking shop years ago, the school was renamed from Thomas Jefferson to Rosa Parks and is more of an alternatives school now.

The high school I took automotive at which also had a very nice woodworking shop converted the stand alone shop building to alternatives classrooms.

Our educational failures have lead to a flourishing immigrant population.
