The firearms training and safety classes, hunting clubs, competitive shooting, marksmanship, and ROTC classes got dumped along with other practical classes like auto shop, wood shop, metals shop, home RC, and the like. I guess to make room for gender bending indoctrination, political correctedness training, and paganism.
