The computer science CTE sequence starts with AP Computer Science Principles where we examine many of the underlying foundations of computer science as a discipline. We get into some of the basics of Javascript coding on a very basic level as well. Moving into the second year (Computer Science II) we start going in depth by introducing the basics of Python and Java programming languages (mostly Java). Year three is AP Computer Science A which is all about Java and practice creating code to solve problems. The goal is that by the time you're done with the three years, you can take a scenario and create a working Java program to address the issue from start to finish.

The Cybersecurity CTE sequence focuses on non-programming information technology skills. Year one is designed to prepare students for the CompTIA A+ certification which is the foundation of any solid IT career. In this first year, we learn about software and hardware, how to make them work together in a successful system. We cover troubleshooting and repair of standard PC systems and common peripherals like printers and projectors. Students who progress to the second year will be preparing for CompTIA's Security+ certification by learning about how to protect systems and networks from intrusion and the fundamentals of digital forensics and incident response. The final year focuses on networks, preparing students to build and maintain networks. Students who complete the three year program should be ready to enter into the IT workforce and progress quickly as they gain hands on experience.
