We are a small HS. 200 students 9-12. Our shops are nice but kinda small. Average class size is probably 15. We try to keep a cap at 18 students. We have a wood shop, metal shop and a auto/robotics shop.

I base my numbers on PPE per student, and number of devices for each student. My welding class caps at 14 as I only have 14 machines. Intro to Construction caps out at 12 students and construction trades at 12 as well. I find the larger the class in construction, the less productive the class is.

For the past few years I’ve been awful at maintaining relationships (personal and professional). Close friends are no longer close, and I feel distant from my family, oftentimes thinking they like my wife more than me. Idk why it is but the thought of interacting with people gives me anxiety now. I don’t feel confident, and I sometimes feel like I need to hide details of my life. Anyone have experience with this or advice?
