Vocational Schooling
Although Amish only go to school through 8th grade, they do learn some real life skills. Actually, some see their society as a sort of vocational school. The whole community teaches the young Amish how to do various jobs, acting like a vocational school. From learning how to be carpenters, tradesmen, homemakers or farmers, the youth learns a multitude of trades. Some claim it’s like college, Amish style, since they enter the workforce after.
