TRADES AND INDUSTRIES The Day School Trade Preparatory Courses are of two types: The Type "A" Trade Course is one in which the related subjects are taught in segregated classes, apart from the practical shop work. In courses of this type, fifty per cent of the school time, which must be not less than three consecutive clock hours in one day, and not less than fifteen hours a week, is given to "practical work on a useful or productive basis," and from twenty-five to thirty-five per cent of the school time to related subjects. The balance is given to general subjects. The time used may exceed the standards which are stated. A total of thirty clock hours of instruction a week must be carried. The Type "B" Day Trade Course is one in which the related instruction is given by the shop teacher incidental to the shop instruction with no separation of the total time into definite periods for the teaching of related subjects. In such courses, fifty per cent of the school time, which must be not less than three consecutive clock hours in one day, and not less than fifteen hours a week, is given to the combination of shop and technical instruction. The balance of the school day or thirty hours a week is devoted to general and related subjects. The time used may exceed the standards here stated. All students in the Day Trade Program must be registered for six clock hours a day or thirty clock hours a week in order to be classified as regular trade students and remain in the training programs.
