JHS life skills class offers real-world preparation

Students enrolled in Jefferson High’s life skills class do so as part of their “legal education plan,” which includes a confidentiality agreement. Of the four students in the class, The Monitor received permission to use three of their names. To maintain the fourth student’s anonymity, the fourth student chose a pseudonym, “Shaniqua Anderson.”

“I wish they’d taught me that in schools.”

How often have you heard – or potentially said – that phrase? The chances are fairly high.
