I don’t know how unique it was, but I found out at the U that many even in bigger cities were not offered tha chance to take drafting and architectural drawings. In grades 10 & 11 I was the only girl until another girl transferred in 12th grade. At the U my major was design and those classes gave me a leg up. I also had the chance to take an interior design class in high school.

Did high school prepare you for later life?
