@ucbalumnus Wouldn’t the colleges need the course syllabi or descriptions to make the determination that you did? Based on what I know of the program and their relationships with the local colleges, military and corporations, I think there is more to the program than it just being the typical two hs classes stretched out. In my mind there is no question to the value of this program.
Regarding foreign lang., from someone who uses Spanish daily, I believe my son needs to know how to communicate with those he works and lives with. I took a bunch of classes in hs and college, but learned to effectively communicate through real life personal & professional experiences/practice. IMHO, The hs classes are not effective, but I agree that for college application purposes, the box must be checked to be competitive.
Also, I had to add that through our college visits, talking with admission counselors, and talking with tech professionals, we have only heard overwhelmingly positive feedback about our son’s participation in the program.
