Re: FIRST High School Curriculum

Team 701 started a class in Jan, 2003. It is simply offered for credit and fulfills the VocEd requirement for graduation. I tried to get it approved as a College Prep class through University of California - but was declined. With more time, I can re-work the curriculum some more and hope to get it approved. We average about 8-10 students enrolled, another 4-6 show up most days and sit in on the class.

I'll attach the curriculum outline that I wrote for UC Course Approval. It is very ambitious - I only get through maybe 60% of what is in there. Of course if it ever gets approved as a UC college prep class - I will have to get through it all.

The bad news is that our course is in jeopardy, because of district cutbacks. Hopefully I get 30 students to sign up for next year so they can't cancel it (although that presents another host of problems with so many students - but I prefer that than losing the class)

toodles...
