The vocational education system of 450 local education agencies offered coursework in agricultural, business, family and consumer sciences, health occupations, industrial, and marketing and cooperative education. In FY 1997, more than $21 million federal, $48 million state, and $101 million local funds were expended to support vocational education. Enrollment included 127,598 secondary, 54,132 postsecondary, and 94,695 adult students. Seven regional and two metropolitan centers provided vocational training and employment services for single parents and displaced homemakers. During FY 1997, 7,480 students received services provided by sex equity funds. Forty-three at-risk student centers provided academic and vocational instruction, intensive counseling, and support services. State leadership activities focused on state directed curriculum and professional development.
