Introduction to Computer Science (CIT020)

Prerequisite: None | Grade Level(s): 10-12 | Credits: 1   

Introduction to Computer Science is an introductory-level course for students brand new to programming and computer science. In this course, you will learn problem-solving strategies, software design, and the foundations of computer science. This course prepares you for continuing study in computer science by teaching you how to think computationally and solve real-world problems. Students learn Python, which is a general-purpose programming language. It is most praised for its elegant syntax and readable code, and it's quite powerful. Python is used by many large organizations (Google and NASA for example) to do just about everything from building apps, analyzing data, system administration, etc.

Advanced Placement Computer Science Principles (CIT019)

Prerequisite: Introduction to Computer Science (preferred) | Grade Level(s): 10-12 | Credits: 1   

 The AP Computer Science Principles course is designed to be equivalent to a first-year semester introductory college computing course. In this course, students will develop computational thinking skills vital for success across all disciplines, such as using computational tools to analyze and study data and working with large data sets to analyze, visualize, and draw conclusions from trends. The course engages students in the creative aspects of the field by allowing them to develop computational artifacts based on their interests. Students will also develop effective communication and collaboration skills by working individually and collaboratively to solve problems, and will discuss and write about the impacts these solutions could have on their community, society, and the world.  As an integral part of the rigor of the course, each AP student is expected to take the AP exam in May.

Math Analysis/Pre-Calculus (MTH104)

Prerequisite: Algebra II | Grade Level(s): 10-12 | Credits: 1
