[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the classes the freshmen actually take, by period?

I am totally confused, by the 0.25 credit per semester research thing, and how they get a whole credit for physics in one semester if it's one period, is it two?

Also, does everyone take the same computer class, or are there levels?[/quote]

They get a whole credit per semester for both chemistry and physics because they compress the whole year into a one semester course.

Everyone takes the same computer science class first semester, and then they choose between two different levels for second semester.

R & E is .25 credits per semester.  They learn to use tools and then build projects / do experiments that support the content from their other classes.

I believe the classes are:
Math
Science (Physics first semester, Chem second semester)
Computer Science
R & E
English
US History
2 electives (most kids take World Language for 1 of these. The other could be music/art, PE, etc.)[/quote]

But is Physics one period, and a whole credit, and R and E is one period and a quarter credit?

Or is physics a double period?

Do you know the names of the computer science classes?[/quote]

Yes, Physics (and Chem) & R&E are single period classes.  [/quote]
