Description: Many students have the misconception that kids who go to trade school are either less motivated or not as bright as those who go to college. This cannot be farther from the truth. We want to break the stigmatization that everyone must attend college to succeed. Motivated and intelligent students choose to go to trade schools for various reasons, and we want to explore how we can change this public perception. At Robert James Trial Attorneys, we strongly believe that trade schools offer an excellent alternative to traditional four-year universities, and we want to encourage students to explore this option. Because of this, we have created the 2023 Trade School Advocacy Scholarship. In a 3-5 minute video or in 750 words, explain why trade school is the better choice for you and how we can eliminate negative perceptions surrounding trade schools.
