Wow, Principles of Technology and stained glass sounds great! I went to high school between 2002 and 2006, in a public high school in a rich county in the U.S. We had electives including painting/drawing, home ec, sculpture, drama, woodshop, drafting, and business typing/business systems. My senior year, the school added some career academies so students could also elect to take classes such as carpentry/construction, cooking, auto tech, things like that.
