VOCATIONAL SCHOOL

The Monmouth County Vocational School District is a route to success for its graduates. A positive
attitude towards teachers, school and fellow students is needed to develop skills in the student’s chosen
vocational area. The cooperation of the parents with the vocational school is necessary to help insure a
successful program for their children. Transportation for a vocational program is supplied by the
students’ residential district. The students receive 20 credits per year for the two and a half-hour
vocational program, 10 credits for the shop and 5 credits each in applied science and applied mathematics.
The Monmouth County Vocational Schools are shared-time schools. Students will attend their home high
schools for half the day and the vocational school for half the day. Students and their
parent(s)/guardian(s) should review the vocational programs and courses available by making an
appointment with the appropriate guidance counselor prior to a final schedule.
