Yes, we have sewing classes and cooking and shop in our high schools in Whitehorse. They aren't referred to as home economics, etc. but they are there. My daughter will be concentrating on a more in depth program for h r first semester next year. (she will be in grade 10) called FADS (fashion and design). The first semester for grades 10 and up is dedicated to those that want a more concentrated courseload in shop (they get to the point they make their own snowboards!), or cooking (they run the cafeteria for the rest of the term and handle catering for school functions, getting a food safe certificate is part of that program, MAD which is for the actors and FAD for the sewers.
