(KUTV)Back in the day there was just shop and art classes. Now, students are being offered classes in dozens of technical careers and the Jordan School District has just added the art of hairdos and nails to the list.

The teacher, Lyle Ferguson, is all about hair.

That's been his specialty for more than 35 years and now he's sharing his talents with high school students at the new Jordan Applied Technology Center, or JATC, in Riverton.
