When I was camping in Oregon last weekend, I struck up a conversation with the people in the next campsite. Turned out they were from my town, and had a kid with them who is in my daughter's class. I askeed him if he was planning on attending college and he said no, planning to hire on with a friend who has a flooring business. He gave the impression he hasn't really given the idea of college serious consideration.

The local community college has a number of vocational courses, from truck driving to agriculture to winemaking. They seem to be filling the role the High School should be at least trying to fill.
