Traditional Woodworking

Hands on woodworking skills are alive and well

Picture
It is our firm belief here at Grants Pass High School that a solid foundation in the traditional skills of hands-on woodworking is essential for our students.  Although we are embracing modern technology in our work, it is critical to the overall success of students to have the basic skills needed to make a piece of furniture or cabinetry using traditional methods.  Measuring and marking, math, plans and blueprint interpretation, machine set-up and above all the safe use of all machines in the shop are where all students begin.

Where are we now?

Here at Grants Pass High School in Southern Oregon, we have a lot to be thankful for.  Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in vocational education.  Yes, College is still a critical destination for our kids but the way in which students get there has evolved.  Do you think you want to be an Engineer?  An artist?  A Scientist?  All of these areas of study can benefit from the hands-on approach we offer in our modern shops.  What if College isn't in your immediate post high school plans?  Maybe you want to enter the trades or manufacturing.  We can help you get to almost any place you want to be.  This isn't your Fathers (or Mothers or Grandparents) shop class anymore.  We teach practical applications of Science, Technology Engineering Arts and Math and we do it with a hands-on ability that is unmatched in any School District in the area.  All of this in addition to having the opportunity to create some of the most amazing and beautiful work to come out of any High School we can think of.
