Pullman High School

A year long course designed to be a high school student’s first exposure to the Project Lead the Way Engineering program, appropriate for students in grades 9-12. It will explore the work and role of engineers in the design and development of solutions to real-world problems. Students will be empowered to build technical skills through a variety of engineering tools, such as geographic information systems (GIS), 3-D solid modeling software, and prototyping equipment. Students learn and apply the engineering design process to develop mechanical, electronic, process and logistical solutions to relevant problems across a variety of industry sectors, including health care, public service, and product development and manufacturing. To receive college credit, students must earn a C or better in this course. The instructor will provide registration information for college enrollment.

AP Computer Science A is a college-level introductory computer science course. Students cultivate their understanding of coding through Java analyzing, writing and testing code as they explore concepts like modularity, variables and control structures. Students who take AP CSA are usually planning to attend a 2 or 4-year college and will take the AP CSA exam in the spring. Students who do best in AP Computer Science genuinely want to learn new ideas and how to code. Students who are prepared for AP CSA have solid algebra and logic skills, but do NOT need to have ANY coding experience. Students will be expected to ask questions, drive their learning, complete application projects and challenge themselves. Math credit will be applied only if AP Computer Science students who take the course in the senior year of high school. The course cannot be used for both math and science.
