Jim Weber, machine shop teacher at Capital High School in Helena, wants to prepare students for the real world of modern manufacturing. His two-year welding and machining program includes cutting-edge equipment, field trips, internship opportunities and recruiting networks.

Weber says this ethic isn't just hard work. It includes integrity, honesty and character. Two students from Capital High School join in the discussion.
