Transcript issue with college courses in high school

Gratefully my state (Wisconsin) allows public high school juniors and seniors to attend college courses during the school year at the public districts’ expense under what’s known as Youth Options, and I’ve capitalised upon this opportunity this year as a junior by attending Calculus II and III at the local UW College in my town. When I received my high school schedule, however, I noticed my college course listed under ‘Youth Options’. I thought “Fair enough; it’s not actually an official high school course here, so it isn’t really able to be placed in my schedule properly.”

Despite this, I’m concerned that my course will show up like that on my transcript. Now, because these courses are replacing high school math courses, which I’ve exhausted, I’m worried that colleges would note an “absence” in math for the last two years of high school, because I doubt colleges would be looking at my soon-to-be college transcript until I’m applying for credit for certain classes. Would this affect the way colleges look at my high school transcript and cause colleges to see “missing” math courses in junior and senior year?

I know I shouldn’t be worrying about this now - I haven’t even entered junior year yet - but all your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
