[quote=Anonymous]My high schooler took three classes for h.s. credit when he was in middle school (two math, one foreign language). Some of the math classes were needed as a prerequisite for other classes (programming and physics), so he was able to take those earlier than other students who didn't take the necessary math until they were in h.s., and the foreign language credit freed up another spot for an elective in his senior year (when he'll be done with the years most colleges like to see). That could be filled by another AP class, potentially saving tuition money in college. I've known several kids who have fulfilled all their h.s. requirements and been able to graduate a year early, and I've also know other kids who are able to leave school earlier in the day so that they can work and earn money. I didn't realize that some schools offered so many h.s. classes in m.s.; ours only offered the two subjects. [/quote]
