From the post:

>In America’s most surprising cutting-edge classes, students pursue hands-on work with wood, metals and machinery, getting a jump on lucrative old-school careers. School districts around the U.S. are spending tens of millions of dollars to expand and revamp high-school shop classes for the 21st century. They are betting on the future of manual skills overlooked in the digital age, offering vocational-education classes that school officials say give students a broader view of career prospects with or without college.

Nothing wrong with being a carpenter, plumber, etc.

Not at all. I was brought up in a house where trades were the main income. I ended up in tech over time but I still know how to do all of those things. It is a good thing to know how to do the very basics of everything. Plumbing, Electrical, Carpentry, Auto work, Gardening, Cooking, etc.......

I don't know about "hedge against AI future" but too many youths don't know how to make an omelette.

Auto class? Schools are so commie, kids think that they can public transportation everything.
